Thoughts ?

My feeling is that the cons outweigh the pros. Having multiple JARs
commonly turns out to confuse users, especially with a setup where you
can even get the very basic functionality working without choosing
your combination of JARs.
With Maven, this is not really a big issue, IMHO. Consider that it's a one time burden...

Now, if it degenerate to a dozens of jars, yes, I + your point.

But even if we keep only one jar, I think we still have to create some new packages, because we have a big bag of classes in common, which make it quite difficult to find what are the relations between each classes.
In addition, the current core JAR is about
500 kb, not huge.
I didn't even mentioned the size in the pros ;)

thanks !
