2) How are cross-repository buildtime and optional dependencies handled? For example, can we have a package in [extra] makedepend and/or optdepend on another in [community]?
no. all packages that depend has the be in the same repo.
Well, that cannot be true. There are lots of packages in extra that (make-)depend on packages in core, and packages in community that (make-)depend on packages in core or extra. Only the other way around is forbidden. Read the "->" as "may deliver (make-)dependencies for" core -> extra -> community

thanks for explaining better. what i wanted to say is that a package from core can't depend on o package from extra or community. or a package from extra cannont dependend on one from community. he asked that exact type of dependency and that's why i said is not allowed.
