There's nothing wrong with there being a site plugin, configuration for the
a site housed within the site plugin and running the site plugin. What is not
right is how it was fused into the base level of the POM and not contained to
its plugin and how it's special requirements have created several
inconsistencies in the core that have made it hard to evolve. What is also not
right is requiring special resolution magic for a specific plugin to run. You
think that creating a special mode of resolution for one specific Maven plugin
seems reasonable? I personally do not.
