Since the analysis is running on the SonarCloud platform, we don't have
a way to inject custom rules [1]. I think what could work is filing an
enhancement request for OSGi APIs so they are basically excluded from
certains checks.

We might want to run this over other communities ( e.g. Felix, OSGi-dev 
) for more traction.

Thanks,
Robert
