   Dana, I don't believe the Perforce provider will ever provide easy, ad hoc 
SCM operations.  The semantics are just too far removed from what CVS/SVN 
provide (and the SCM API assumes).
   
   You should be able to set up a clientspec by hand and then use 'mvn 
-Dmaven.scm.perforce.clientspec.name=\<clientspec-name> scm:checkout' to check 
out the contents of that clientspec to the current directory.  Note the 
checkout command will update the clientspec to change the Root to the current 
directory.
   
   See SCM-110 for details on force syncing.
   
   If this is sufficient for your needs, please let me know so I can close this 
issue.
