Multiple (extend-) inheritance

Hi,

I tried to abuse the extend mechanism as a workaround for the lack of
transitive dependencies in Maven:
One real top-down inheritance hierarchy and one bottom-up inheritance
hierarchy for dependencies only.

But unfortunately this doesn't work because Maven doesn't support multiple
inheritence, although multiple 
extend-elements are allowed by the schema. Only the last extend-element ist
evaluated.

Are there any plans to support multiple inheritance ?

Is there any other chance to get transitive dependencies ?
