it's not unpredictable at all, it is pretty clear that to force a
version in a project you need to add it in your pom and
dependencyManagement doesn't affect transitive dependencies, it's in
the documentation, and even in the jira issue Brett says that it was
done on purpose.
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html
now poms in the repo that have dependencyManagement sections will
start to change the behavior of current builds and people with 2.0.5
will get very different results than people with 2.0.6 which i don't
think it's acceptable for 2.0.x
I'm not against the fix, and I wouldn't really care if this is shipped
next week as 2.1 and current 2.1 is moved to 2.2, or even better get
2.1 alpha now with this fix (+100!)

Do you fully understand what the current behavior is and what this
patch fixes? You are essentially condemning users to complete
unpredictability. I really think that a build should be staged and
explain to users what the change is and let people build with it. If
we don't get enough feedback or there is a consensus that they think
it's not good then we don't put it in. But we already have many users
who are suffering and asking for this to be the default behavior.
