Make dependencies on javaee artifacts such as war, ear, rar get the contents 
into the classpath.

                 Key: MNG-3516
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3516
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: David Jencks


Some javaee servers such as geronimo and IIRC jboss let you construct 
classloader hierarchies where the classes from one javaee app can be available 
in another javaee app's classloader.  Maven ought to be able to support stuff 
like this by having a more flexible model of how to get the classes from 
something more complicated than a jar into a classpath.

This is most important for war files where the WEB-INF/classes directory 
generally contains stuff that won't be available anywhere else in a maven repo. 
 For ear libs and rars presumably the contents are available as independent 
artifacts in a repo.
