I will try to explain, why the dependency is wrong.
In my opinion, Ubuntu (like any other distro) must have its own default applications.
But as a quite common and widely spread distro, I do not find it a good practise to force install parts (like libraries) of any default application.
I find it odd to be forced to install unity libraries or introspection packages into my setup, where I do not even have unity installed.
I only use gnome-shell and gnome-panel.
So, why must I have unity parts installed?
Chris, you gave me already an explanation, which as I understand it was that it more convenient and handy for unity users.
I do understand it, though I do not share this opinion.
