Should the missingOK flag just make you able to *install* a package

some functionality would suddenly just wanish...
Nah, convoluting install vs upgrade mode behavior changes into "missingok" would
make everyone's head hurt. Certainly gives me a headache ;-)
Nice and KISSy, "missingok" is a "optional" edge in a dependency graph until the
depsolver guys catch up ...
