Gradle Plugin to Native Feature - Request

This is just a request to see this plugin / capability be added as a native feature of Gradle.

Here is the plugin, which is very valuable but development basically stopped 3 years go.

I found it after reading about a feature of a dependency manager for .NET called Paket, which also seems like a good example of the concept.
