Description
**[Andreas Sewe](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=sewe)** opened **[MDEP-593](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-593?redirect=false)** and commented
Currently, `-Dmdep.addParentPoms=true` includes all parent POMs, but does not quite ensure that the copied POMs are “resolvable” as `import`-scoped “BOM POMs” are not copied. It would have be nice to add such an option (see MDEP-591 for motivation as to why this may be needed).

Research direction
Start by tracing how the existing `-Dmdep.addParentPoms=true` option selects POMs to copy, then review MDEP-591 for the motivation and expected behavior around import-scoped BOMs. Done means an additional option copies the relevant BOM POMs so the copied POMs are resolvable.
