Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MNG-7843:
--------------------------------------------
I'm not worried about current builds. I'm worried about experience in the
future when a developer wants to exclude jdom:jdom but also ends up excluding
jdom2 by accident because of an overly greedy regexp. As Jamie Zawinski
famoulsy said, Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll
use regular expressions." Now they have two problems.
