   > Just don't add non-shared libraries into EAR dependencies
   The world isn't that perfect, you can't always control that, especially when 
working with third party artifacts. There is a reason why this part of the spec 
isn't implemented for the plugin, it is very difficult to do it right. And 
Maven is missing some optimizations. Most ear dependencies shouldn't download 
transitive dependencies. The work around is adding exclusions with wildcards. 
But that's only an instruction for Maven to download, it is not an instruction 
for the maven-ear-plugin what not to include.
   I'll need some time to see if there is a better way to solve this.
