There is no inclusion filter

I'm looking for the possibility to have MiMa only report about specific packages that I declare to be "the public API" of my .jar file. Ultimately I would like to use the export and provides keywords from a module-info.java file to check only those classes contained within those packages.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I seem to be able to have an exclusion filter, but not an inclusion filter. For now I have to exclude all packages that I don't consider part of the API and need to keep in mind that when adding a new package, it should be added to the exclusion filter as well.

I think until MiMa gains support for deriving the packages from module-info.java having only an exclusion filter is the right API to expose. While everything is publically available (i.e. before JPMS) the burden should be on opt-in out.
