Right, splitting across dependencies is not easy. Maybe it could simply be up to each project to value each of their own dependencies. They would be "politics" of course but projects should have the best knowledge. Also, "politics" is not always a bad word: an endangered dependency really difficult to substitute or re-implement could be valued more for no real "technical" reason and that would be OK.
