> In an IDE environment, you want to know what will be generated by a plugin 
> without having it execute. For example, if you have a plugin that generates a 
> source directory you want to know that without having actually execute the 
> plugin because it can take a long time if you have a lot of plugins.
> Another issue will probably have to be created to outline changes to the 
> plugin api so that external tools can call this method to get all the 
> information up-front. I couldn't find any related issues.
> This should also work when reactor projects are run.
> Another example is any plugin that produces resources that need to be added 
> to the UI.
