> In ServiceMix, we started leveraging the features OBR resolver functionality to avoid installing excess bundles when we combine features from other projects (like ActiveMQ, Camel and CXF) with our own descriptors.  Some of our bundles have quite a few optional imports, and if we want to allow users to use these optional bits, we have to ensure that none of the providing bundles has "dependency=true" set on them.  It would be nice if the OBR resolver itself could be configured to also look for optional imports instead, as this would make the features a lot easier to maintain.
