Feature Element Scope Matrix

   

Edit: ContentTypeBinding can scope to Web. I updated the matrix accordingly.

Edit: ListTemplate can scope to Site. I updated the matrix accordingly.

In the past, I was often frustrated by feature scope incompatibilities in my solutions when using ActivationDependencies. These days I almost always use a feature receiver instead (not just to handle dependencies though). Either way, remembering the compatible scopes for each element is hard on my poor brain, so I made this matrix a few months ago that I use as a reference.
