             Summary: Consider special casing slf4j-simple et al
                 Key: MSHARED-1204
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-1204
             Project: Maven Shared Components
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: maven-dependency-analyzer
            Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold


 slf4j-simple is sometimes added to classpaths to shut up annoying warnings from SLF4J at run and test time, even though it isn't absolutely required. Can we do better with our analysis of the common case and similar ones, rather than reporting it as declared but unused?

```
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
      <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
```
