Sorry for the late review. I'm not opposed to the release and I won't
mind if you prefer to ignore my feedback :)

I would be possible to avoid a runtime dependency by shading the classes.

I don't think that makes any difference performance wise, in both cases
it leads to a comparison of references.

I know hiding the javadoc doesn't solve the issue, but that makes the
documentation cleaner and less intimidating.
