Extended example, where
* parent inherits maven-parent and manages junit,
* module-1 overrides plexus-component-annotations (managed by maven-parent) and 
manages plexus-utils with a depMgmt section and
* a new module-3 (without a parent) using module-1.

{code:title=Module 1}

Module-3 obviously uses wrong plexus-utils and junit versions, but at least the 
correct version of maven-plugin-api and plexus-component-annotations:

{code}

Generated with Maven 3.3.9.

If I understand you proposal now correctly, you would like to forbid the local 
overriding of maven-plugin-api, which is ignored for module-2, but respected 
for module-3. OTOH module-3 exposes different problems, since the active 
depMgmt sections of a dependency itself are not considered.

One use case, where I use a local overriding also actively, is for testing a 
different version of a dependency. Existing unit test may reveal a different 
behaviour.

> Overriding the dependency management in a module's {{<dependencies>}} 
> section, the overridden value will not be preserved transitively. It makes no 
> sense to be able to override the dependency management in a module if that is 
> only effective in that module and nowhere else. Overriding the dependency 
> management from inside a {{<dependencies>}} element should be considered an 
> anti-pattern. Maven should provide a warning when it is used. During the 
> development of Maven 3.4, there have been quite a few discussions on dev@ 
> about build issues which were all caused by overriding the dependency 
> management that way without noticing this is not supported transitively.
