How about "features in proposal 1 should be needed by all programming models".  And/or "features in proposal 1 should be necessary for implementing efficient one-sided applications".  Note that if it is relatively straightforward to build hardware/software/combo of the two to make a feature efficient, it wouldn't go in proposal 1 under the second definition.
