> So what you describe is normal and has been like this since Maven 2.x 

With Maven 2 we used unique snapshot versions.

The issue with Maven 3 is that developers local repositories might grow
significantly since several timestamp snapshots are downloaded. 

Also we don't have a mechanism to purge the local repositories as we do on
the remote repository with Nexus, or does maven provide one I don't know of?
