How about using shading twice using two different projects (or subprojects) one to build a shaded minified jar then another one depending on the first one just shading the drivers and the result jar from the first shade operation without minifyJar this time?

Good idea. Might work. The problem is that the name of the driver is read from a properties file, so I only have a String to go on.
