    Thanks for clarifying.
    
    My point was that the use of the method is limited to two classes: 
`SearchEngine` and `ChainResolver` (because it is essentially a proxy).
    
    A quick search seems to indicate that most (if not all) custom resolver 
implementations out there extend `AbstractResolver`, and thus providing a 
default implementation of the method with the new signature as a wrapper in the 
abstract class will mitigate the problems due to the lack of it.
    
    Therefore I would like insist on adding the method to the interface as well 
as changing the signature in all resolvers that ship with Ivy. Any public 
method in the abstract class should be declared in the interface, and going 
halfway does not make much sense.
