allow managed dependencies to manage all settings

[loomis]

The recent addition of managed dependencies to 0.3.1 was a great enhancement. We'd like to move to using the baked in managed dependencies, but we also need to have all of the non-coordinate settings managed, not just the versions.

Would this be of general enough interest to be considered for a PR? I have an initial implementation of it in https://github.com/SixSq/pomegranate/tree/manage-all-dep-options if people want to take a look.

@senior @cprice404 I've created a PR request that extends the managed dependency feature to allow all dependency options to be managed, rather than just the version. I've tested that this works with boot, but we're probably the only ones using that feature at the moment. As you two created/tested the original managed dependency feature and use (I think) leiningen with managed dependencies, I was wondering if you'd be willing to review and ideally test this patch? I think that this would give Chas the confidence to merge the PR, presuming that everything looks OK.

@loomis sure, I will try to take a look at it as soon as I can find some time!

@cprice404 Thanks. Much appreciated.

There has been no movement on this issue for several years, I'll go ahead and close it as stale.
Please feel free to re-open if you have an interest.
