Composer.json also is a nice way to have good description of dependency
requires: { "udan11/sql-parser": "^3.1", }And composer.lock in the release tag gives even more information (exact version, commit reference, for each bundled external lib).
Having a "vendor" dir with all the external lib is rather a good thing, and easy to manage downstream, just have to remove its content and create an vendor/autoload.php to use the system libraries instead.
This can also allow to cleanup the libraries/vendor_config.php file.
Of course, the "vendor" dir have to be included in the distributed tarball, but doesn't have to be in the git repo, developer are probably used to run "composer install" in such project.
Thinking more about this, using composer is probably best approach here. It's too late for including this change in 4.6.0, but we can target on 4.7.0:
