release:update-versions should support -DreleaseVersion too (not only
-DdevelopmentVersion), so it also supports not suffixing the version with
-SNAPSHOT

Key: MRELEASE-699
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-699
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet
The documentation
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/examples/update-versions.html
states "The update-versions goal can use the same properties used by the
prepare goal for specifying the versions to be used."
That's not true, as releaseVersion is not supported:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/prepare-mojo.html#releaseVersion
This means, that if you do this:
mvn --batch-mode release:update-versions -DdevelopmentVersion=1.2.0
that the set version is not 1.2.0, but in fact 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT.
