If a Pass breaks because DominanceFrontier was not explicitly added in pass manager queue then the pass is broken. A pass is supposed to request all the required analysis itself.

$ opt -mypass 

should just work even if mypass needs DominanceFrontier. It is mypass's responsibility to request dominance frontier.

Enforcing `$ opt -domfrontier -mypass` requirement completely goes against getAnalysisUsage() mechanism.
