Stefan Bischof commented on MNG-8058:
-------------------------------------
i know about [https://maven.apache.org/maven-ci-friendly.html]
Thought it is an question of `is the value a constants` in full build process.
and are all this constants known at the very beginning.

What is the problem of `resolution hell` that will come up in this case?.
