And personally I would be totally fine with this, where maven is in
/dev-tools, just like eclipse and idea configuration, and we can even
put a whole README.txt in there that says "these are tools for
developers and if they start rotting they will be deleted without a
second thought".

but requiring special artifacts is a different story, its my
understanding that in anything but a "hello world" maven project you
need your own local repository anyway. So such a person can simply
install their own artifacts with /dev-tools into their local
repository... problem solved.
