> 'specification' attributes denotes an interface that needs to be imported (at least its package) in order to allow iPOJO to load the interface.
> When you're writing components based on abstract classes, sometimes you ends up with declaring service dependencies for the component that, in fact, belongs to the super class.
> If the package used for the dependency's specification is never used in your bundle (containing the concrete class), then you have to manually add an Import-Package.
> This is error prone.
> iPOJO could check the packages of specifications and auto generate Import-Package for them (if required), just like what's already done for composite components.
