I originally just wrote some code because I wanted to put the dependencies in my pom in alphabetical order and/or grouped by scope. Then I was thinking that there could be a general pom plugin to do things like sort the dependencies or reformat etc [1]. I didn't realize that there was already a pom plugin in the sandbox. I'll take a look and maybe I can just add my mojo.

Anyway, I definitely like the idea of a pom plugin to do "pom:reformat" or "pom:reorder" and maybe I can add a parameter about sorting the dependencies.

pom:reformat would be pretty nice

+1, cool idea. Might we worth to distinguish the use cases "reorder" and "reformat", i.e. separate indentation stuff from element ordering.

BTW, Paul had once started a Pom Plugin [0], maybe there is something to reuse/merge.
