It’s all Maven specific, it’s always been Maven specific and that’s unlikely to 
change after how many years? Even if it can employ different strategies it’s 
still the Maven Artifact Resolution API. No one is going to use this API to 
resolve from NuGet, NPMJS, PyPi or anything else. Let’s just make it better for 
our specific use cases instead of imagining this is going to be a general 
purpose tool. It is clear that this never happened and probably never will. 
Does it matter?
