Hi folks,

I noticed that all the file browser extension plugins have an 
unnecessary dependency on the main client package.

Technically, it is not necessary to install the client to use one of the 
extensions. In fact, one can combine, e.g., the shell extension with an 
AppImage or any other kind of packaging. It would be nice to, e.g., 
allow users to use a specific client version as an AppImage and combine 
it with Debian's nemo-owncloud package for an improved user experience. 
See [1] for more information.

I suggest to downgrade the relation to Recommends or even Suggests.

Kind Regards
Fabian
