Hi Igor, I think intuitive for the network config will be to use the eclipse network settings. AFAIK all / most of the plugins are doing this. For the rest of the options in settings.xml, well that's the purpose of the settings.xml - I agree that this is the right place. May be it will be helpful, if after the installation or throughout the installation there is some option to select settings.xml. This can be used by packaging / scripting tools, used for centralized corporate installations (as it is the case here).
