This is a good point. Should we have Buildr depend on lock_jar?

>> It seems that right now dependency version ranges as shown here [1] are not 
>> supported.
>> A version range is e.g. used by ehcache-web ([2]), so that when I use
>>  transitive('net.sf.ehcache:ehcache-web:jar:1.6.0-beta2')
>> buildr fails with this error:
>>  Failed to download net.sf.ehcache:ehcache:pom:[1.6.0-beta4,], tried the 
>> following repositories...
>> It would be great to have support for version ranges, otherwise some libs 
>> cannot be used with transitive().
