    this is a complex way to exclude the client, and roundabout it feels as it 
suggests the module is built it just defines a no-op build.  also with maven 
(as you've discovered with the `activation` logic) inverting a profile is 
convoluted and prone to errors.
    
    do you think it would be better to exclude the module altogether if the 
profile is set?
    
    unfortunately to do this in the uber pom it seems there is no way to avoid 
listing the modules twice, once with `brooklyn-client` and once without.  maybe 
the least messy way would be to create a new pom in 
`brooklyn-client/pom-wrapper/` which has a default `<modules>` list pointing at 
the parent but if `no-go-client` profile is set the `<modules>` list would be 
empty.  wdyt? /cc @aledsage @rdowner @neykov
