GRADLE-2742 <http://issues.gradle.org/browse/GRADLE-2742>

For now (Gradle 1.5), I have to do this:

runtime('commons-vfs:commons-vfs:1.0') {
    exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}

runtime("org.springframework:spring-webmvc:$springVer") {
    exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}

But there's a better solution in Grails, looks like:

runtime('commons-vfs:commons-vfs:1.0',
"org.springframework:spring-webmvc:$springVer") {
    exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}


I'd like to bring this syntax to Gradle. What do you think about it?
