       Body:
Could I suggest an slightly different alternative?  Rather than having to specify which deps to bundle AND include in the XML, instead use a single property (ear.module) to indicate that the dependency is a J2EE module - setting this to true would imply ear.bundle=true also.  This means one would use ear.bundle=true for simple jar dependencies, and ear.module=true for those J2EE modules that should be bundled AND have a <module> added to the application.xml.

Description:
ear:ear goal automatically places all depended jars with <ear.bundle>
set to true in application.xml which is unwanted.

Only few of these jars should be described in application.xml. All other jars are bundled just because they are required libraries and that's a convenient way to create a indepenent EAR which contains all resources needed to properly run the application.

I suggest adding one more property: <ear.appxml.include> and include only these resources with this property set.
