+0.

I believe that it will be a good idea to shade a few critical libraries
that are likely to appear in incompatible version, and which are known
to cause problems otherwise and which work fine when shaded. I did a
quick check on dependency:tree and there doesn't seem to be any such
library, but we've had such problems with rhino and asm in the
xwiki-platform, and even log4j when the container prefers to use its own
version.
