Generated POM.xml should keep comments
--------------------------------------

                 Key: ARCHETYPE-85
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-85
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-4
         Environment: Win XP, Maven 2.0.7
            Reporter: Ludovic Claude
            Priority: Minor



I'm writting some custom archetype for my projects. In the POM.xml template 
file, I want to put some comments that would be useful for those developers who 
don't know Maven and to guide them.
Something like:

<project>
         [...]

        <dependencies>
                <!-- You can add/remove dependencies as you need here. -->
        </dependencies>
</project>

Unfortunately, the whole <dependencies> tag is removed from the generated 
pom.xml file. It would be nice to have a templating mechanism that's able to 
keep those comments.

Thanks, 
Ludovic
