That might work, but my intention is not to play with arbitrary experimental PRs, but is to find a consensus, what such a future feature should look like to get it accepted by the Maven team. Is that specific PR agreed to get adopted to Maven 4? IIUC this PR stops adding ANY zips tot he classpath, but how to keep a specific one one still?
