> Many dependencies of the springframework should have the optional flag set (<optional>true</optional>).
> For spring-orm: spring-webmvc, toplink-api, jdo, ibatis (probably others)
> For spring-jdbc: c3p0, commons-dbcp, xapool
> For spring-hibernate: hibernate3, hibernate-annotations, hibernate2
> Assumably there are many others that Spring developers would know, but these are ones I know are optional.  
> The use case is here is that I want to use spring-hibernate with hibernate 2 only.  Therefore of the listed optional dependencies, only hibernate 2 (net.sf.hibernate:hibernate) should be required.  I currently receive the others transitively, but they are not desired, and frequently will not be desired.  Therefore it's better to set them to be flagged as optional, instead of forcing users to set exclusions.
> Optional flag added: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-947
