Tuomas Kiviaho commented on MRELEASE-849:
-----------------------------------------
That was my biggest fear initially but I gave it a try since it is not
ambiguous in same manner as are disparate version ranges on a dependency and
surprisingly it worked. I was almost certain that this thing will bite me back
after a while - apparently it did - but still there's a bit sisu left in me
because the fix was basically a one liner. More natural solution would have be
just merging between two branches but then I'd be missing all the fun.

> think there's similar notation for profiles.
