The dependency for embedding the Camunda REST API does not seem to be
contained in the Camunda BOM. That forces users to always specify the
version number:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.camunda.bpm</groupId>
<artifactId>camunda-engine-rest</artifactId>
<version>7.2.0</version>
<classifier>classes</classifier>
</dependency>

Could this be included in the BOM or is that a shortcoming of Maven?

The following example also shows the issue:
