-----------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not strongly against this solution, and we could live with it temporarily 
but I think for this issue as for OFBIZ-7773 we should follow the Apache Groovy 
team recommendation which is to use 
https://github.com/tkruse/gradle-groovysh-plugin. We could then ask users for 
their preference, it's here a bit more difficult so maybe best to forget it and 
let users completly decide about it.

Globally for static downloads, one issue I'm thinking about is possible 
vulnerabilities. Here see eg 
https://www.cvedetails.com/google-search-results.php?q=jdbc&sa=Search
The beauty of a tool like Gradle is it should automatically prevent 
vulnerabilities. We can of course cross compilation issues with automatic 
updates but it's orders of magnitude less dangerous than an hidden 
vulnerability...
