ivy configuration concept in future maven?

hi, 

maven provides scope (test, runtime etc.) filter certain dependencies.
never the less sometimes it is quite helpful to have a another configuration
option, where you decide what to include transitively. This way you wouldn't
need to use the exclude maven construct to avoid getting all transitive deps
you are not interested in.

as an example ivy follows this interesting approach
(http://ant.apache.org/ivy/m2comparison.html)

maybe this could be a nice feature for future releases of maven2?
