Description

This dependency was introduced by recently added bears which use Python package `lxml`.
Installing lxml from pypi requires libxml2 headers, which are typically not found on Windows.
This is going to be a major problem until coala/coala-bears#1000 is fixed.
Temporarily, we can improve good instructions for Windows users on how to install lxml.
