<useProjectDependencies> ignores <optional>true</optional>

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. My specific setup involved spring-orm.
2. It depends on many jars, most of them <optional>
3. Hibernate 3 and 4 are included. But both are <optional>. Since <optional> is 
ignored by <useProjectDependencies>, both of these jars are in my classpath. 
Neither should be.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
To only have required jars in the fitnesse classpath. All jars, <optional> or 
not.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest. Windows and Linux.

Please provide any additional information below.
At first I thought it was due to me not understanding compile, runtime, system, 
test... But no. I tried every combination. "compile" should work, but it gets 
too many jars.

Too many jars!!!

Possibly we also need a way to specify exclusions also ...

Fixed on /trunk for 1.4.0. Public SNAPSHOT updated.

Mojo property fitnesse.excludeOptionalDependencies controls excluding of 
optional dependencies. Defaults to true.

Significant reduction in number of jars on the FitNesse classpath :-)
