Review Comment:
   Well you go nowhere there since some of the brands i mzntionned were owned 
by the same guys and ultimately if you are reasoning like that maven is no 
limited to java so same state for me.
   
   The cross plugin need was ack, no need to discuss it and you got the reason 
why it doesnt belong to core with an example that you would pull all the code 
of all plugins in core, even osgi for the same reason.
   We just need it in a lib and find a neat way to change type/option mapping 
per plugin as explained on the list - same module.
