Topic: Set compat bounds for non-dependency packages

I know this sounds odd (trust me, I have a good reason), but can I set compatibility bounds on packages that aren't dependencies of my package?

Looks like I can do this if I have the package listed in [weakdeps], even if there's no extension code/file?
