Just a note: I see that htmlunit is actually in springsource EBR:
http://ebr.springsource.com/repository/app/bundle/version/detail?name=com.springsource.com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit&version=2.6.0


I can't see the filters being able to easily select a tree of dependencies
so I will conclude there is no "easy" way of doing what I want.
