+1 (Strong) from my side also! Long awaited feature. In some of our CAS overlay projects, we extend or overwrite many CAS classes. It was always quite some work for us to figure out which artifacts and versions of the base CAS version we need in the overlay to not mix them up. Should this module only contain the core dependencies or also other cas modules dependencies and the user needs to exclude them if the module is not in use by his overlay?
Also, I recommend to add a maven plugin to find duplicate artifacts or classes like https://github.com/ning/maven-duplicate-finder-plugin to the overlay pom.xml example in the wiki as a best practice.
