I don't think I was very clear.  The javax.media:jai_core pom.xml with the
same version geotools uses has been on maven central with the download URL
as maven central had suggested.  So geotools developers have been able to
resolve it because of the OSGeo repository all along.

So to explicitly answer Jody's main question above and to several other
related questions.

I wonder if there is a way to ask it to keep searching to the next

To the best of my knowledge that's the way jai_core has been working for a
while.  The extra confusion may have come in my musings over a longer term
perspective where it would be best to apply a reasonable effort to resolve
as many dependencies with artifacts also available on maven central. In
other words, aside from jai, other dependencies have more flexibility and
there are just some other options.  Also if someone wants to dig deeper in
JAI's license to see what is allowed we may be flexible there to, I just
was going with a more strict interpretation when I originally looked at
this.
