Actually I don't understand why do you want to remove it. It was made dependent on purpose. The shade plugin - if properly configured - will only include StringUtils as a private package in commons-text - so this dependency exists only at build time. We had a bad history of copied code in commons, because the original code got bug fixes and the copies were never updated later on.
