RFE: dependency:get plugin should support version rangers
It'd be nice to be able to download "the latest version of" an artifact with the dependency plugin (eg. for use in a deployment script) using the same mechanism Maven itself uses, i.e., dependency ranges. Unfortunately, the dependency plugin does the wrong thing with them:
$ mvn dependency:get \
-Dtransitive=false \
-DgroupId=com.example \ -DartifactId=example \
-Dversion='[1,]' \
-Ddest=example-LATEST.jar
complains that it couldn't find an artifact whose literal version was [1,].
Totally a "wouldn't it be nice if" request,

Does http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/copy-dependencies-mojo.html
have the same problem?
