Jacob Robertson commented on MNG-2968:
--------------------------------------

I certainly understand and respect what you're trying to accomplish, but the 
sad fact is that if this suggested fix is implemented, it will break 90% of the 
artifacts in my company, and will mean we have to do re-tooling on the inhouse 
things we've done that depend on artifact id, cvs module name, and project name 
all being the same.  This is a sweeping, non-backwards-compatible change, and 
it shouldn't be done lightly.
