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

Can a dependency on foo omit the 'bar' attribute like so:
<dependency org="foo" name="foo" rev="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,
