(Selectively) disable transitive dependencies
---------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1977
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1977
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: New Feature

  Components: POM  
    Reporter: Kees de Kooter


I depend on some libraries, which in turn depend on something
(which in turn depend on something) that I don't want, because I declare
some other artifact in my pom.xml.

A concrete example: I don't want that the artifact "xerces" is imported in
my project because I declare to depend on  "xercesImpl" which ships newer
libraries but with the same namespaces.

I guess I would need an "exclude transitive dependency at all", either
globally or from this and that artifact. I saw the <exclusions> tag, but it
forces me to be very verbose and have exact control on what is required by a
dependency.
