Markus Karg commented on MSHADE-382:
------------------------------------

There are other use cases for skip: Often while programming I do `mvn verify`. 
In fact, what I _actual_y want is just to run some integration tests, while I 
do not care for the shading *so far* at that time. Certainly, in a _later_ 
step, I do want to turn it back on *then* (when I am _done_ with searching for 
problems). It is _very_ useful that I just can skip the shading *temporarily* 
without modifying the POM, so I can learn if some detected problem *comes* 
_from shading_ *or not*! As a contributor to Maven Shade Plugin I *very often* 
do that while hacking on new MSHADE features!

So for me _as a frequent contributor to this plugin_, being able to do 
`-Dshade.skip` is a *very big plus one*, actually, and thumbs up to Andres for 
providing the PR! :-

> It'd be great to have a property for skipping execution, such as 
> `maven.shade.skip`. Useful when a parent has setup shading but a child would 
> like to skip it for example.
