Description of Problem:

Using monolinker.exe on a binary of mine fails, because one of the dependencies
is a mixed mode file. I suggest adding a way to

a) specify a (white-)list of target dependencies (i.e. "Please shrink only the
roughly 30MB IKVM.OpenJDK.ClassLibrary.dll and leave all other files as-is")

b) specify a (black-)list of assemblies that should be left alone/copied only
(mixed mode files, files that are shared dependencies and shouldn't be adjusted
for this specific target file: "Do your thing but leave all _these_ files
completely alone")

c) both. ;-)
