Description

There are situations in projects with many dependencies where a transitive dependency that is desired to be excluded is pulled in by several of the immediate dependencies. In these situations it can be awkward and clumsy to have to add and maintain this particular exclusion in each immediate dependency that introduces it.

There should be a way to list exclusions independent of a specific immediate dependency, so that they take effect for all of them wherever the specified artifacts might be introduced transitively.
