What matters really is what you deploy, otherwise 
groupId/artifactId/version are mostly just an annoyance (one more reason I 
like Gradle better, those are entirely optional there).
For example, that a submodule has a <parent> (in many cases being the 
aggregator module) is not a "convention", it's a cargo cult.

Anyway, this is something we can probably "control" as a community for 
org.gwtproject artifacts/projects.
