When should I use Import-Package and when should I use Require-Bundle?

Question

OSGi allows for dependencies to be determined via Import-Package, which just wires up a single package (exported from any bundle), and Require-Bundle

Answer 1

I'm not convinced that using Import-Package is better, because my default expectation when working with a bundle is to work with the associated public API. For that reason, Require-Bundle makes more sense.
