Hey,
Hopefully writing result formats will become even easier

Hopefully it will yes! Though this will not be brought with using the Ask
library, as the technical issues faced there are mostly disjoint from the
Ask language. That being said, having a nicer implementation of the Ask
language is likely to help facilitate a new class of result formats, much
in line with the AJAX stuff recently written about.
What do you think to do with growong number of dependencies of SMW?

These will not bother the users as they currently due, since SMW will be
one of the first MediaWiki extensions to support a real dependency manager.
More on that will be announced in due time.
It seems that by SMW 1.11 we're going to need to install Validator,

SMW 1.9 has been needing all of those, except Ask, already for quite some
time.
Maybe we should pack SMW tarball with these extensions?
We definitely should, and have been doing this since SMW 1.6 or 1.7, I
can't quite recall.
By the way, are there any other MW extensions that also use Validator

Yes. Validator is used by Maps and SubPageList, amongst others. DataValues
is used by Validator, and by many of the Wikibase related components. I'm
hoping to have automatically generated lists of these package consumers
available in the coming month. This is now possible due to having actual
package definitions ans using public package repos.
Cheers
