OSGi XService intergration cannot be used with Maven snapshots
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AS7-1134
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1134
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: OSGi
            Reporter: David Bosschaert


When using OSGi XServices, for instance to invoke an OSGi service from a Servlet, the user needs to add an extra dependency to the manifest in the Dependencies header. For instance the following Maven instruction in the maven-war-plugin can be used to do this:
  <Dependencies>org.osgi.core,org.jboss.modules,org.jboss.logging,deployment.jboss-as-web-osgi-api-bundle:${project.version}</Dependencies>

This works fine for release versions, such as 7.0.0, however it causes issues with SNAPSHOT versions as 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT gets translated into 7.0.0.SNAPSHOT on the OSGi level while the MSC dependency mechanism is looking for 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT and hence can't find it.

For more context see the following console output:
