-----------------------------------------------------------------
With the new {{maven.properties}} introduced in
[MNG-7914|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7914], it should be easy to
change the default config and define an {{MAVEN_XDG}} variable (unset by
default), which, if present, would change default values to some XDG compatible
values, else, keep the current values the way they are.
Then, you'd just have to create the {{MAVEN_XDG}} environment variable to
configure Maven in an XDG compatible way.
