Another use case for allowing dependencyManagement in (a profile in) settings.xml that I ran into recently is overriding POM remote URLs (e.g., scp) with local ones (e.g., file) for use on a CI server that also houses corporate maven repositories and generated sites. BTW, this cut deploy goal build times in half.

Hi, I noticed that it is not possible to define the distribution management inside the settings.xml. In my case the distribution management configuration is the same for all projects and so far I had it defined within a parent pom. Since distribution management configuration is only relevant for developers who actually can write to a repository, I thought it would be cleaner to define that in the individual settings.xml, which to my surprise was not possible. Is there a reason why this cannot be used in the settings.xml or is this something that could contribute to the improvement of Maven?
