OK, good to know.

If you are happy to update jira to target MVERSIONS-144 for 2.0 and commit
it to trunk that would be a help.

I just want to get off the 2.2.x compat sauce and get over to 3.0 as a
minimum as there are a lot of bugs that are near impossible to fix without
being on a consistent dependency resolution API... though Hervé's
dependency tree component might be able to solve some of those issues... I
have not checked.
