I'll answer my own question.

It seems that org.apache:apache-jar-resource-bundle versions 1.3 is more
flexible and so does exactly what I want.

The question is: Why did it "regressed" by forcing the "This product
includes software developed at The Apache Software Foundation (
http://www.apache.org/)." entry? Is it because maven, the plugin and the
bundle content are used? That would be a little harsh since none of these
are delivered. Any specific reason?

Thanks,
Henri
