Spring Boot Docker layers with transitive dependencies

Question

I've multiple Microservices with varied 3rd party dependencies, currently using default spring boot docker layers which copies all the dependencies to same dependencies layer. However I want to split the dependencies into core and dependencies layer. core layer contains spring-boot-starter-webflux, spring-boot-starter-actuator, spring-cloud-starter-sleuth and rest of the dependencies like jpa, streams etc goes into dependencies layer.

bootJar {
    enabled = true
    archiveFileName = "${archiveBaseName.get()}.${archiveExtension.get()}"
    layered {
        application {
            intoLayer("spring-boot-loader") {
                include "org/springframework/boot/loader/**"
            }
            intoLayer("application")
        }
        dependencies {
            intoLayer("application") {
                includeProjectDependencies()
            }
            intoLayer("snapshot-dependencies") {
                include "*:*:*SNAPSHOT"
            }
            intoLayer("core") {
                include "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-webflux:*"
                include "org.springframework:spring-webflux:*"
                include "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator:*"
            }
            intoLayer("dependencies")
        }
        layerOrder = ["core", "dependencies", "spring-boot-loader", "snapshot-dependencies", "application"]
    }
}

The problem here is layering include doesn't include dependencies transitively. For example spring-webflux doesn't include reactor, netty transitively. I need to mention the dependencies manually. Is there a way to include the dependencies transitively only for core layer and not for application or snapshot and rest of the dependencies to dependencies.
