Yes I brought it up, but I don't think it's an insurmountable issue,
just that it won't work as well. I believe the major issue is with
version ranges, which likely is a problem mainly for third-party
add-ons (e.g. your lib requires 5.3 or above). Nearest version
resolution however takes care of user usually getting the desired
library versions as dependencies (if he sets them as explicit
dependencies).  See
http://mojo.codehaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/version-rules.html for
more info (it's for a plugin but well documents Maven's core version
resolution - not that Maven 2.x and 3.x differ in that respect).
