Generally speaking, could be possible (didn't look at other extensions).
I'll try to script somthing for the requires generation
like /usr/lib/rpm/pythondeps.sh. But it won't be possible to easily
generalize requires, it would be better to have Conflicts:
   <!-- Firefox -->
   <em:targetApplication>
     <Description>
     <em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>
     <em:minVersion>3.0</em:minVersion>
     <em:maxVersion>10.0a1</em:maxVersion>
     </Description>
   </em:targetApplication>
There isn't only firefox in that file, there are many browsers that
aren't available in fedora, so R: Flock >= 0.4 and R: Flock <= 2.0.*
would be never fulfilled --> Choosing to conflict with all other
versions.
Would that be ok/sane?
