    Description

      I depend on some libraries, which in turn depend on something
      (which in turn depend on something) that I don't want, because I declare
      some other artifact in my pom.xml.

      A concrete example: I don't want that the artifact "xerces" is imported in
      my project because I declare to depend on "xercesImpl" which ships newer
      libraries but with the same namespaces.

      I guess I would need an "exclude transitive dependency at all", either
      globally or from this and that artifact. I saw the <exclusions> tag, but it
      forces me to be very verbose and have exact control on what is required by a
      dependency.
