I guess that I started bike-shedding here, I should have been silent I
guess...

I do consider this names to mean something different in the contexts,
i.e. "needs" is something that is expressed in metadata, while "require"
is part of a function name. But hey I'm by no means native speaker, so
who know, and also I would prefer to work on the actual code, which is
more fruitful than API renames.
