Research direction

Start by locating the resource-sharing cache and the exclusion-filter handling in the Combinator module. Reproduce the issue with resource sharing enabled, an exclusion filter of ".*", and a previously processed jQuery resource set; done means excluded resources are not reused from the resource share.

Description

With resource sharing enabled if you set up exclusion filters to exclude a set of resources then if that set was already processed and is saved to the resource share than exclusion filters won't take effect and the saved resource will be used.

E.g. set exclusion filter to ".*". If jQuery (let's assume there's a set of resources that solely consists of jQuery) was already processed and is saved to the resource share than it will be taken, despite the exclusion filter.
