How to physically resolve a tree without downloading the POMs to read the content? Sounds like magic.

> Anyway, I'm building a dependencies resolving system, and for this, I need to get all of the transitive jars and *poms* needed for resolving a single artifact. I was looking at the demo on the `GetDependencyHierarchy` class, but when I use a function like `dependencyResult.getRequest().getCollectRequest().getManagedDependencies()` I only get a list of artifacts. No poms. I really need to list these poms and the only way I've figured out to do that was to add them from the listener class (through events). This is a pretty dirty way of doing this and I wonder if there's a way of getting the dependencies list including poms in an easier and cleaner way?
> My second request is to be able to do this without actually installing them. I don't need them locally and I just want this list. I currently delete the local folder after each resolving cycle, but this is dirty. Is there a way to resolve dependency and only get the list of the resolving result? Without some `localRepositoryManager`.
