Sure, if it has a general use.

This is starting to sound like duplication of what already exists in the
jjar 'stuff', and is leading to a duplication - would it be possible to
simply use jjar to get the dependencies?   That way, there would only
one set of dependency descriptors that could be used both for gumping as
well as for general project build and deployment use.
