Has anyone looked at the Sonatype Aether plugin(http://aether.sonatype.org/)? I've been following along with Clojure's Leiningen project, and they are moving their own system to using Aether for dependency management, as it handles all of the Maven settings, proxies, repository/dependency resolution, etc. that they've hacked together using Maven Ant Tasks currently. If all that is needed for Bundler integration is a dependency resolution mechanism for Java libs, I would think Aether could work, but I'm speculating quite a bit here.
