Barend Garvelink commented on MNG-3374:
---------------------------------------
I think this is an important improvement. Maven's filtering support is rather
limited at the moment (compared to ant) and a centralized component would make
it a lot easier to gain some ground. Some of the features I'd (eventually) like
to say:
* Don't constrain placeholders to {{${..}}} syntax, it's a good default but
you need to allow any literal to solve some edge cases, for instance, to filter
a property where the unfiltered value has to be meaningful, e.g. in an
deployment descriptor that's also interpreted by an IDE.
* To allow XPath-like expressions in the replacement value, e.g. it'd be
mighty useful to allow something like
{{xpath:/project/dependencies/dependency[artifactId='commons-logging']/version}}
as a replacement value.
