Not a maven expert but it shouldn't be hard to write a plug-in to
validate there are no unversioned snapshot dependencies if it really
causes so much hassle. Perhaps fail the build if an artifact's version
ends with "SNAPSHOT".

Or perhaps it will be possible to have the plug-in look at an xml file
(in our case the component-matrix) and compare all dependencies defined
in that file to the project dependencies. In case there are project
dependencies not defined in the component-matrix (or with a different
version), the build should fail with a descriptive error message.

Not sure if it will be worth the effort though.
