      1.  Proposed title of this feature request

          Exclude filter for packages should exclude dependent packages on the published Content View version.
       
      2.  What is the nature and description of the request?
       
          When a package is excluded on a CV version, we might run into dependency errors if the excluded package is necessary for other packages. To avoid this, if a particular package is excluded using filter, the dependent packages should also be excluded. 

      3.  Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

          Customer has requirement to exclude certain packages and this sometimes causes dnf/yum update to fail on clients when the excluded packages are required for other packages. To avoid this, they have to manually exclude the dependent packages on each client. 
       
      4.  How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)
       
          An option to exclude dependent packages as well when an exclude filter is created for a CV. 

      5.  For each functional requirement listed in question 5, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.
       
          NA
         
      6.  Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?
       
          NA 
       
      7.  Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies?
       
          NA
       
      8.  Is the sales team involved in this request, and do they have any additional input?
       
          No

      9. List any affected packages or components.

          NA

      10. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

          NA
