It's impossible.
For example, GPL-2.0 and GPL-3.0 are incompatible. So, if user
requires both GPL-2.0 AND GPL-3.0, it means that we have invalid
license items.
So, we should provide only "OR" modifier, not "AND". And I agree
with ponce: we should provide a per-file license specifics, it
should solve your problem.
