Hi Stephen, 

Thank you for clarifying.  That tells me what constraints I have to work
with,  which is a big help.

Is there any intent to change these restrictions?  I don't think anyone
wants to change version mid-run (I've seen in other threads where you
mention something about the reactor getting confused if the version were to
change mid-run?), but I think there is a desire to change it 'at the start'
of maven process execution in a more dynamic-yet-friendly way than just
'pass it in via command line'. 

The desire here, to be clear, is to give developers a correct default
behavior when they type 'mvn clean install', and to never force them to type
-Dproject.version = something-wrong

Matt (posted after you) wanted to do something similiar point with the
buildnumber plugin, too.

Seth
