I vote down this, weld has 2 jars, if user want to use core jar use core jar, you should not force other user do the same as you do. I'm using -servlet jar and it make my already complex dependency not that hard to maintain. if I need to use core jar, I'll use core jar, but I don't force other people do the same as I do - like I use gradle but I don't force you to use it.
