Mainly what I was trying to say is that this dual licensing distinction can already be handled with path-specific 
exceptions so I guess I'm indifferent to adding more code for this.

I view path-specific exceptions as workarounds for deficiencies in licensecheck, and would prefer to have as few 
path-specific exceptions as possible.  Ideally, the only places where path-specific exceptions would be used would be 
places where licensecheck would need AI rather than pattern matching to identify the license. :-)
