Indeed would favour a verb, but not sure with both RECOMMENDS and OPTIONAL if they make clear enough that the listed products/features will be simply skipped in the build if any of their internal or external requirements cannot be fulfilled.

But then it might just be underdocumented and uncommon and people have not yet discovered the nice build customizations this offers over what is usually possible. Time to roll the drums about this, mean, blog :)
