My main concern is around merging into the dependency plugin that
creates a new dependency on a sandboxed item if it's really far away.
I'm thinking that it might make sense to keep the analyzer plugin
separate until this shared piece can be unsandboxed. If the current
version can be unsandboxed and prepared for release if we clearly note
in the dependency plugin docs that these goals are very alpha, then
that's ok. 

What does the PMC think?

There's a couple of things I'd like to see before it was released:

- write some integration tests to fully verify the bytecode dependency
code
- abstract the concept of a dependency away from class files and make it
pluggable in order to support: classname references in XML files; Java
META-INF service files; etc.
- javadoc ;)

Still, it could be released in it's present form if there's demand to
warrant it.
