How to filter artifacts on compile configurations?

Help/Discuss

Using

dependencies {
compile group: ‘xx’, module:‘DependencyName’, version:‘0.0.+’, configuration: ‘anIvyConf’
}

definitely works.
Note that multiple ivy conf is not supported at the moment.
As suggested here, I emitted the possibility of having this included in the short notation, as many ivy.xml of large entreprise artifacts are using the conf attribute to do the sort of things you do as well (sources jar, tests jar, dependOnDependencyFooVersionBar, dependOnDependencyFooVersionBaz, etc etc)
