> maven provides scope (test, runtime etc.) to filter certain dependencies.
> never the less sometimes it is quite helpful to have a another configuration 
> option, where you decide what to include transitively or what kind of 
> dependency-set is relevant to your current project. using <exclusions> 
> configuration to accomplish this is often very verbose, non-standard and is 
> difficult to read (it is often not obvious what is meant with all these 
> exclusions). 
>  
> as an example ivy includes such configuration meta-info approach (see 
> http://ant.apache.org/ivy/m2comparison.html). this feature would be nice 
> because when building releases one is more flexible.
