Do any languages specify package requirements in import / include statements?
If you're interested, you could further raise this on F# discord server or in https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp, F# is effectively a community-managed language so if there's a particular change you'd like to see, there is a high chance you can just make it happen if you have time to see it through.

You should add your +1 to https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/issues/8764, which would add a syntax like #r: project ... to FSI.
