Split the WAR file creation as a separate goal
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: MWAR-86
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-86
             Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 2.0, 2.0.2
            Reporter: Simone Gianni
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice to have a separate goal that zips the WAR file. This way it 
will be possible to write (and use) plugins that manipulates the WAR folder 
before the WAR file is built (like applying patches, reorganizing site 
structure and similar stuff).

Also, there are some plugins (like the cocoon deploy plugin) that actually 
extend the war plugin to operate "in the middle". This could be avoided (IIUC) 
adding these separate goal in the WAR plugin.

It should be quite trivial to do, I volunteer for trying.
