It appears as though this is actually implemented. The Extension installer skips any dependency with the description beginning with the word Optional. I duplicated the functionality in Trunk rewrite of the extension installer, though the feature appeared to be already in the code. This is documented in the Trunk version of the BuildContrib extension.
