I totally agree that it is a far better aproach to have a child elemnt
of the dependency, however, as you said, this requires more changes
that are not likely to be on 1.0.x. What I implemented is a less
intrusive solution, since properties for dependencies are already
there. Future migration should not be a proeblem, since just changing
the property to a child element is trivial and easy automatizable, I
think that for the short term this can be good.
I emphatize for the short term, I don't know if 1.1 will come with
changes to the pom, if so, I'd really prefer the child element.
