I believe <Embed-Transitive>true</Embed-Transitive>
should work. Sadly, I'm not at work so I can't check how, exactly, I did it. But the answer is, yes, it is possible to embed the transitive dependencies. Regarding the wild-card, http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-maven-bundle-plugin-bnd.html has a (somewhat) good description about how to add dependencies that match specific patterns/criteria. Just scroll down to the section "The following features are only available from version 1.2.0 onwards" with the subsection "Embedding dependencies".
