If your sole concern is the number of lines one must type, it is
certainly an option to have meta-pom.xml be in the format you find most
comfortable, then xslt it into the "more verbose" m2 pom.xml.

This argument of attributes versus elements has existed since the dawn
of [xml] time. I am not trying to argue one way or the other, but since
m1 pom used the "more verbose" syntax, it eases the transition.

In fact people should develop a plugin that maps the simplified and verbose schemas on the fly :) The advantage of using namespaces is that you can create a your tag and map it to the verbose tag from the official pom. That's the way I've seen the spring guys use it for now but the advantage that I see is that in could be much easier to extend the pom and it would be more "type safe"
