Just went through this with both kids... The word "need" always implies a goal. "I need x (to do y)". Without context, the goal is generally either survival, or more often, comfort: "I need a drink." "I need a break."
When you're speaking in the context of doing something, as superglue was, that becomes the implied goal. "I need those recommendations to automatically populate (in order for my wife to be comfortable using this)" is a perfectly valid use of the word "need".
