If you are looking for something along the lines of http://mojo.codehaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/use-latest-releases-mojo.html#allowIncrementalUpdates and its siblings... that is probably acceptable.

My preference would be to find a way of giving indiciations within the pom as to the version ranges that a dependency should belong to in addition to the version, e.g.

  <dependency>
    ...
    <version>2.0</version>
    <?versions [2.0,3.0)?>
  </dependency>

is currently my thinking in this regard... but I would prefer if it could be part of the pom model (needs a pom model version bump) rather than trying to sneak it in via XML PIs (which is better than magic comments or other trickery) as then Maven core itself cannot benefit from the information and IDE tooling support will be likely to cause issues for people
