My 2 cents:

I've been trying to get par and ejb3 aligned with the new preferred .jar
file extension, but I wasn't able to do so.

I do believe that those packaging formats should still be available,
though, and that the file extensions should be changed to .jar.

Par and particularly ejb3 need special treatment - the latter requiring
also a secondary -ejb-client artifact. We might be able to merge the last
one with the ejb plugin, but par is a different case - it needs
META-INF/persistence.xml in order to be a legal PAR archive.

Btw, par and ejb3 are still in the sandbox - this might get people into
trouble when trying par/ejb3 packaging.
