David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-1677:
----------------------------------------

I'm having trouble explaining the problem clearly.  With our current geronimo 
classloaders, there is no way to write a dependency plugin without marking 
dependencies, as is done with the m1 plugin.

If we have a directed acyclic graph classloader, in which every car file or jar 
gets a classloader of its own, AND we modify the m2 build to intersperse 
configurations and modules so that a module such as for example the connector 
builder gets its connector classes from the connector configuration rather than 
the connector module jar, then we could write a dependency plugin that 
collected the non-car dependencies.  This is a really long time in the future.
