[TYPO3-dev] Composer support in extension / Extension Manager?

[Lieuwe Hummel]

Hi List,

I discovered that core extensions have a composer.json nowadays, and
that PackageStates.php records a composerName entry per extension where
applicable. I'm a bit puzzled with its use.
Can I, as an extension developer, put it to some use? Or is this an
unused feature left over from the Flow backport? Or something else?
Tanks in advance for your reply!

Regards,
