In general I agree that it would be nice idea to separate optional providers from the common module. IMO, we should create a submodule for each third party library, so the user will be able to bring only the relevant sub modules with their third parties. The third parties of different libraries very often have conflicts. This rise additional question regarding the distribution: should these modules be included in wink-<version>.jar and all the third-parties in the lib? I guess not.
