(If support for this use case already exists then apologies in advance
but I suspect it's not supported and that I'll need to hack some extra
code...)

specific use case:
 assemble a jar containing all dependencies without losing legal meta-data

example:
 LICENSE and NOTICE in META-INF must be preserved when including an
Apache License, Version 2 dependency

workaround:
 manually maintaining specific LICENSE and NOTICE for the assembly and
updating any time any dependency changes upstream


Perhaps add this would be a little too specific for a general plugin.
So, one way to satisfy this case is by adding a solution to

more general use case:
 extensible support for smart dependency mergers with collision
detection and resolution


Opinions?
