> I would like to forward a wish to have the assembly plugin support the notion 
> of file mappers similar to the ones in Ant[1]. To illustrate, assuming a 
> multi-module project with the following layout:
>      Root
>        |-Module1
>        |-Module2
>        |-Container
>        |  |-Module3
>        |  |-Module4
>        |-Module5
>        |- pom.xml
> and an assembly desriptor entry for the contained modules like this
>   <fileSets>
>      <fileSets>
>         <directory>Container</directory>
>         <outputDirectory></outputDirectory>
>         <includes>
>           <include>**/target/*.jar</include>
>         </includes>
>      </fileSets>
>   </fileSets>
> The assembly plugin will be able to get all jar files produced by Module3 and 
> Module4 but the "Container/<ModuleName>/target" structure will still be 
> included. One workaround is to enumerate each <ModuleName> artifact but 
> problematic if the number of contained sub-modules is numerous. Support for 
> filemappers which  look like this:
>   <fileSets>
>      <fileSets>
>         <directory>Container</directory>
>         <outputDirectory></outputDirectory>
>         <includes>
>           <include>**/target/*.jar</include>
>         </includes>
>       <mapper type="flatten">
>      </fileSets>
>   </fileSets>
> will cause all contained jar files to be copied without their original 
> structure. This feature would be useful for globbing artifact names as well 
> as for physically organizing project structures according to type.
