>             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: analyze
>            Reporter: Robert Scholte
>            Priority: Major

> Springboot introduces the concept of starters, which are a predefined set of dependencies. 
> It is an empty jar, which acts as just a container for multiple dependencies. (it should have been a pom, but that means people suddenly need to add {{<type>pom</type> to their dependency)
> Due to its popularity we should solve this during analyze: a starter should be a delegate for its dependencies. (in the code I would use the word {{delegate}}, not starter as it is too Spring specific)
