private goals

[Daniel Bonniot]

Hi,

On http://wiki.codehaus.org/maven/PluginCreation?action=highlightvalue=goal it 
is said the following:

  Goals that the user will never use directly (ie, goals that check a username,
  prepare a directory structure, etc) don't have descriptions.
This convention makes perfect sense to me. But then, isn't it confusing that 
those goals appear in the ouput of 'maven -g'? When I see Non documented goals 
:... I expect that those are useful goals that are missing documentation.

I'm not sure if it's the best rule. Let's say it in Java language:
'method is private if don't have javadocs'.
Maybe it will be better to assume, that 'private' goal is named
using defined naming convention. With name starting with '_' for
example (so 'init' becomes '_init')?
