If a module has an extra attribute in its info, is that attribute always
required to be listed in another module's dependency descriptor?=20
E.g. if I have foo:
<ivy-module version=3D"2.0" =
xmlns:extra=3D"http://ant.apache.org/ivy/extra">
	<info organisation=3D"foo" module=3D"foo" revision=3D"1.0"
extra:bar=3D"extraAttr" status=3D"integration"
publication=3D"20101011144201"/>
</ivy-module>

Can a dependency on foo omit the 'bar' attribute like so:
<dependency org=3D"foo" name=3D"foo" rev=3D"latest.integration" />

The docs at
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/concept.html#extra
say that the extra attribute is required on dependencies, but finding
this issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-745 makes me think
otherwise.

Thanks in advance,
