I've taken a look at the code. if I understood the plugin correctly, it modifies the effective pom on the fly during the build. as far as I understand it, it doesn't cover all cases (like plugin configuration that uses a property value, or does it?) and it's not capable of tiggering property based plugin activation. In that sense it's less evil than I thought initially. I don't fully understand the usecases but obviously it's useful to someone. That shall not stop me to raise my concerns though.

Do we have a requirement that all plugins must be embedded IDE friendly?
AFAIK not, however once such use gets spread, you will get bug reports. I'm generally more concerned about stuff ( read: maven core components) that prevents reading a correct effective pom in embedded environment than plugins. Milos
