Reto Bachmann-Gmür commented on FELIX-4107:
-------------------------------------------
I just found out that foo.bar.* matches foo.bar so that I can specify the range
on that and don't need to broaden it to foo.* as I thought.
> Allow to specify import version range only for the case the package is needed

> is is possible to specify the impor range in a parent without causing
> unneded imports if this is spcified with a wildcard. While in many cases this
> can be used in some cases this is not possible as using a wildcard would
> broaden the matching packages too much.
> A possible solution could look like: if the package name is specified betwen
> square brackets then it is only added to the final manifest if it is actually
> needed by the bundle (i.e. would be part of the auto-generated imports).
