> Think this scenario:
> User has a custom Tomcat Valve class to be defined via server.xml, first he generated a jar from an IDE, then use install-bundle command to install into the server, then the user defines the valve in the server.xml to use.
> This scenario introduces a cycle dependencies relationship between the user bundle and Tomcat bundles. 
> 1. To resolve the user bundle, the Tomcat bundles need to be resolved first
> 2. To start Geronimo Tomcat module, the user bundle needs to be resolved first.
> Currently, the install-bundle command add "resolution:=optional" properties to the installed user bundle, though the user bundle could be started when server boot, but if the there are packages cannot be resolved with "resolution:=optional", those packages won't be resolved anymore.
> An improvement is to add "DynamicImport-Package: *" header to the generated menifest.
