Alternative dependency mediation
Does Maven 3.x support any strategies other than "nearest definition" for
transitive dependency mediation?
Specifically I am interested in if it has the ability to use the "highest
version #" found anywhere in the dependency tree.

Cool, thanks! I might just look into that.

Would be nice if this was pluggable. We've (me and others out the Illegal
Argument podcast) lamented Maven not resolving the "lowest version in the
range" when compiling.

We tried to change the version *range* resolution strategy once at my old
company. We found that this component is not injected by the DI container
but rather instantiated with 'new'.
A colleague of mine wrote a patch and opened a ticket [1] that does exactly
that. We didn't end up using the patch ourselves but maybe it can give you a
clue where you need to be looking.

No, it doesn't. At least not out-of-the-box. I don't know if it would be
possible to extend in any way to get this behavior.
