Can you please explain what you mean with 'non-inclusion dependencies'?

The only idea to bring this two worlds together would be to execute the "validate" button of the product editor in the Tycho build, i.e. to have the build warn/fail if including/excluding non-inclusion dependencies makes a difference in the output. But this has only been a vague idea discussed on a conference - there isn't even an enhancement request in bugzilla for this yet.
