Strategy for transitive conflicts (or minimal version)?

[slavashvets]

Assume we have an external library with transitive dependecy:

external:lib:2.0
\ -- external:lib-trans:1.2

In the past lib-trans v1.0 had a major bug and was updated to v1.1, and then to v1.2 because of a minor bug

My build.gradle:

compile('external:lib')

My version.properties:

external:lib=2.0
external:lib-trans=1.1

In this case version.properties means "I know that I need external:lib-trans v1.1 or higher to get application worked (major bugfix)".

But I also want to use higher version if it's available (minor bugfix).

When I use OverrideTransitives strategy, I get 1.1 version resolved, but I expect 1.2.

How can I tell plugin to perform conflict resolution when a dependency is transitive?

We would need a third strategy for that. We welcome a pull request for the functionality. Right now we have ConflictResolved where recommender just adds versions for missing versions and does normal conflict resolution. And OverrideTransitive where transitives go to what is in the recommender.
