   > In any case we should never report hamcrest-core 2.2 as unused. It 
contains nothing, causes no problems, and prevents other problems even though 
it contributes exactly zero classes to the classpath.
   
   Should we exclude all artifacts without classes?
   But from other side why we need such artifacts ... maybe for transitive 
dependencies?
   
   What with artifacts contains something eg in META-INF/services?
   
   It can be ease done in maven-dependency-analyzer ...
