Olivier Lamy commented on MNG-5251:
-----------------------------------
for build reproducibility, I think IMHO this is something we must *NOT* support.
what will happened for something [1.0,), you will use SNAPSHOT sometimes
(depending on available plugin repositories in your settings).
+1 to mark as Won't fix.
