If some of these are supposed to point to JARs (dependency, include)
and some are supposed to point to Configuration names (import),
shouldn't we have two different types?  As it is now, you could do:

<import>
  <groupId>foo</groupId>
  <type>JAR</type>
  <artifactId>bar</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
</import>

Which has no meaning, right?  (Since the import is supposed to refer
to a Configuration)
