dependency:list sounds good, though I'd be fine with help:effective-
dependencies or something too.

I did think that, although I was concerned that the help plugin would
become a melting pot of unrelated goals.  Since these goals are all
dependency related, I'd have thought most users would expect them to
live in the dependency plugin.

Is the analyse goal like the dependency convergence report? Can any
of the code be shared?

The analyse goal reports on the dependencies declared in the POM and
the dependencies actually referenced by the class files.  Essentially
it shows redundant dependencies (declared dependencies that are not
required for compilation) and implied dependencies (transitive
dependencies that are required for compilation).

It's written as a plexus component and uses asm internally, so don't
think it shares any functionality with the dependency report, although
it could be used to annotate it.

Might go with something other than analyse too, if only to avoid the
need to deal with the spelling :)

Yeah I thought that might cause arguments :)  Better suggestions on a postcard.
