In principle, I've always argued that libraries should be designed in such a way so that adding support should not require including a header, but that's not the path of least resistance and if one doesn't specifically keep that requirement in mind, it's rare to see it satisfied. (And it's not always possible.)

This is what forward headers are for, right?

Nope. You'll still have a dependency to the module in which the forwarding header resides. Unless we create a dedicated module to contain all forwarding headers, but this has its own problems.
