the "deken" cmdline utility has such a feature:
$ deken install -r requirementsfile.txt

however, most people will not have the deken-cmdline utility readily
available, so you may find it it of limited use.

apart from, that there's the deken repository where you can file feature
requests, and look for/comment on older ones such as [84].

i don't think it is too complicated to add such a feature to the
deken-plugin (in principle), but it has to be well thought-thru (as the
comment by peter has shown).
