I think it would be helpful.
Consider the xdoclet plugin that allows you to create a struts-config via xdoclets. If 
you were to have the resulting file sent to the src\webapps\web-inf it would confuse 
cvs on commits.
If you were to have it redirect to the target/artifactId/WEB-INF directory then it 
would require a postGoal (or pre war:webapp goal) that adds it there.

        Key: MPWAR-16
    Summary: war plugin cannot add other files to web-inf without workaround
       Type: Improvement

     Status: Open
   Priority: Major

 Original Estimate: 30 minutes
 Time Spent: Unknown
  Remaining: 30 minutes

    Project: maven-war-plugin

   Assignee: Jason van Zyl

Environment: maven 1.0 rc-1
war plugin 1.4 and 1.5 SNAPSHOT

Description:
Consider a struts war which might have:

WEB-INF/
  web.xml
  struts-config.xml

The current war plugin does not allow you to copy struts-config.xml into WEB-INF 
without a maven.xml postgoal hack.

A possible patch would be to add the following to war:webapp

<ant:copy todir="${webapp.build.webinf}">
   <ant:fileset dir="${maven.war.webxml.src}"
       includes="${maven.war.webxml.src.includes}"
       excludes="${maven.war.webxml.src.excludes}"/>
</ant:copy>

an example project.properties using this would be:
maven.xdoc.date=left
maven.xdoc.version=${pom.currentVersion}
maven.multiproject.type=war

maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.destDir=${maven.build.dir}/xdoclet/webdoclet/WEB-INF
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.mergeDir=${maven.src.dir}/merge
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.0.include=**/*.java
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.strutsconfigxml.0=true
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.strutsconfigxml.0.Version=1.1
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.strutsconfigxml.0.mergeDir=${maven.src.dir}/merge
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.jsptaglib.0=false

maven.war.src=${maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.dir}
maven.war.webxml=${maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.destDir}/web.xml
maven.war.webxml.src=${maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.destDir}
maven.war.webxml.src.includes=struts*.xml

The proposed patch could be enhanced by ignoring web.xml if it is in the same 
directory etc.
