Well the use case appears to be the same as Gradle’s compileOnly, which as the 
name states, it’s used for compilation only and it’s not required for 
execution. Also, dependencies set in compileOnly are never exported to 
consumers, so in a way, with current Maven semantics Gradle’s compileOnly ~= 
Maven provided scope + <optional>true</optional>.
