How to specify dependencies: PEP 508 strings or a table in TOML?

There are 2 remedies for PEP 631:

  1. from PEP 621: how to specify dependencies? - #72 by ofek

    it would also be cool if we allowed multiline literal strings in addition to arrays to get rid of quoting and commas

  2. per PEP 631 – Dependency specification in pyproject.toml based on PEP 508 | peps.python.org, we could utilize inline tables and support a file key as discussed in PEP 631 - Dependency specification in pyproject.toml based on PEP 508

If you are in favor of 2 (as I still very much am), please comment in the thread :slightly_smiling_face:
