>      Project: Maven 2
>         Type: Wish
>   Components: maven-core

>
>
> For example pom.build.outputDirectory (classes directory) should inherit from 
> pom.build.directory. Same for all properties that are used to generate build 
> data.
> Why? Becasue otherwise it's downright impossible to change the location of 
> the target directory (pom.build.directory) as you don't know beforehand all 
> the plugins that are part of the lifecycle and how many properties they each 
> have and their name.
> For example in the clover plugin I need to set the target dir to another 
> location so that main build data is not compromised. I can't do it as I can't 
> controll all the properties that could possibly exist. I'd just like to set 
> the pom.build.directory to a new value and be done with it.
