Saxon-HE 11.1 depends on xmlresolver, could this be reflected in the maven pom?

Description
Hi, Thanks for the Saxon 11.1 release. One item that I ran into almost immediately is that Saxon-HE 11.1 requires xmlresolver for running XPath expressions. There are no dependencies listed in https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/saxon/Saxon-HE/11.1/Saxon-HE-11.1.pom
Would it be possible to add a runtime dependency in the saxon-he pom to xmlresolver in future releases?

The code that I found the issue in is in Apache XMLBeans (class SaxonXPath). It uses net.sf.saxon.Configuration and runs into this issue:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/xmlresolver/Resolver at net.sf.saxon.lib.CatalogResourceResolver.(CatalogResourceResolver.java:46) at net.sf.saxon.Configuration.init(Configuration.java:366) at net.sf.saxon.Configuration.(Configuration.java:229) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.xpath.saxon.SaxonXPath.selectNodes(SaxonXPath.java:91)
I can work around this by adding a dependency on xmlresolver in XMlBeans. Still, it feels more correct for Saxon-HE to declare this dependency.

Yes. I thought to myself "review the POM file before we ship" several times, but never when I was where I could file a bug so that I wouldn't fail to do it :-(
Sorry about that.
