Maybe the maven project.xml 2 pom.xml converter may consider maven1
properties that have a direct equivalent in maven2 ?
For example, if junit is refered as :
<dependency>
   <id>junit</id>
   <version>3.8.1</version>
   <properties><scope>test</scope></properties>
</dependency>

this <scope> property has no effect on maven1 but is valid and adds
documentation to dependency use. It can be converted to the <scope>
element in a maven2 pom.

This can be a way to "help" the converter when a project is aware of
beeing used by maven2 users but doesn't use it itself.

Afaik, it does. Just need to add it to all the project.xml's.
