For me this is the main thing I'd like to see fixed. Not only does it build more than it need to, it can result in broken builds. When my dependency doesn't update, I don't expect its dependencies to update (especially when I don't have control over setting the versions of the dependencies of dependencies). This has bitten me more than once.

It really baffles me that most dependency management systems get this wrong. You'd think it would be consideration #1.
