Review Comment:
Eclipse-plugin never calls that API, resolver does and possibly
maven-plugins call it (that run in the IDE but are not developed by the IDE
maintainers).
The rationale is to allow for a `maven-plugin` to discover all projects
(e.g. in a reactor build or IDE), currently one can only call
`MavenSession.getProjects()` / `MavenSession.getAllProjects()` but these are
usually populated for different purpose (e.g. `-am` / `-amd`) and require
MavenProjects to be setup (so no way to find out "artifacts" only).
e.g. in Eclipse PDE there is a "TargetPlatform", that contains all available
artifacts a project can resolve and projects then can use these to resolve
their dependencies, also this is something where it could be used and Tycho
currently exposes this with a special component (that obviously only plugins
can use that "know" Tycho/PDE).
So this is more "maven" generic, just think about my build fails with
> can't find my.atifact in any remote-repository
I can write a plugin that scans all artifacts using fuzzy-search and gives a
message:
> Did you probabbly mean `my.artifact` instead of `my.atifact`
