Description
We've add a few reports around dependency exclusion for the repackage goal with Maven. The fact transitive artifacts are not filtered out is annoying and certain arrangements require a large number of artifacts to be defined.
While avoiding such practice in application's module should be preferred, it's not always possible. This issue is about reviewing our current support and investigating how we could improve the experience for this.
