Shawn,
Can you say if there are any future plans to include a switch to override
installing the dependencies of a package.
No, there are no plans for that. If a package declares dependencies as
required, then the package system must install them to be able to manage
packages properly. To do so otherwise is madness from a dependency
resolution standpoint.
With that said, it is planned that publication tools are enhanced so
that you can easily copy a package and strip its dependencies if you
want to customise it and install your own version.
Cheers,
