> When a project extends from a parent with a {{dependencyManagement}} section, it is not always possible to properly override (and align) the version to use for a group of dependencies.
> We typically use Bill Of Materials to gather a group of modules and make sure their versions are consistent. 
> The following project demonstrates the issue: https://github.com/snicoll-scratches/maven-dependency-management
> The first commit is a working use case where the parent uses a bom with version A and we use the same bom with version B in the child. Version B is used as expected.
> The second commit demonstrates the faulty scenario. Rather than using a bom in the parent, we use a direct dependency (provided by that bom). We still use the bom with a different version. In that case all the dependencies but the one provided by the parent are overridden (leading to mixed versions for the dependencies provided by the BOM).
> It looks like the distance is still used to compute the version while the graph of dependencies should be flatten at each step for a proper override. 
> Thoughts? Thanks!
