Not sure how easy it would be to make a generic plugin. I don't have any
experience with Cobertura, but it requires instrumentation before running
the tests, right? JaCoCo uses an agent to instrument on-the-fly. The
configuration ends up being pretty different since you need a task to
instrument for Cobertura, but each task running the JaCoCo agent might have
its own.
