In #2267453: Views plugins do not store additional dependencies we added the ability for views plugins to expose their dependencies to the configuration system. This task will add dependencies from argument_validator and argument_default plugins by creating and configuring the plugins in ArgumentPluginBase::calculateDependencies() and returning the dependencies.

We should've unpostponed this a long time ago.

Should this be critical?

Yeah there are probably config dependencies in there. :)

Well, I have seen major issues which have been way more critical, anyway.

Added test coverage.

I looked into adding content entity dependencies for when you provide a fixed argument for something like a UID or NID. Since it is perfectly possible to put non existent IDs here and they are not converted to UUIDs I think that is beyond the scope here and might even be undesirable.

Yeah, the problem is that you don't even know what people might do with the number entered there. It could be that they use it for >comparisons, in which not validating the number as dependency would be the thing you want

Issue summary: View changes

Sounds like validation fun time in a child issue of #2392823: [meta] Much Views UI input is not validated.

For the specific entity dependencies, I do think that's worth a followup since the 80% usecase probably is referencing a specific entity, and the default argument could be a config or content entity depending on the plugin. It might wait on the entity referencing widget bit we talked about as a followup for #2341357: Views entity area config is not deployable and missing dependencies.

Thank you alex for writing a test!

Let's expand the test coverage to argument validator plugins as well.
