There was inconsistency about ?predepends vs ?pre-depends, resulting in the short form not being recognised. I decided to remove the hyphen for consistency with aptitude. I also documented ?recommends.
see apt-pkg/cachefilter.cc lines 445 and 463

should i reverse it? make things consistently have a hyphen in Pre-Depends as in the underlying control files?

We need to support whatever aptitude has and whatever mistake we made, but only document the right one.

Submissions should be on https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt otherwise we might lose track of them (and we don't run tests here)

The ?recommends changes need to be in their own commit, and I guess the list of / in the free text becomes a bit annoying so might warrant rewording
