Historic reasons? The integration of the FAQ happend not too long ago,
therfore I guess.

+1 for merging.

In short:

Each reference.xml holds an section like
<section id="bzip2.requirements">. Scanning for <ulink url> patterns
should be possible, extracting and collecting them in a general list,
which goes into an appendix (ore somewhere else?).
Looks like:
<title>External libs</titel>
<table>
Library Download required by extension
Bzip2:    url     link to bzip2
Curl:     url     link to Curl
....

Attention should be payed to some common ones like zlib.

This is IMHO not a must have feature, but nice to have a central
overview.
