When you say "Almost every one of my pom projects has a /src/site" do you mean maven projects with packaging of type "pom" ?
Because apart from the top pom.xml the other ones (non jar/war/ear etc) are usually just there to group sub projects under the module section and have no other use. These are the ones I don't want to be checked-out recursively.

I haven't browsed the source or really watched the commits for several months, but I thought it used some of the same infrastructure for SCM handling. I could be wrong. Regardless, that really is more of a comment for the continuum-dev list, not here. As to your points below, I'm not sure that "pom projects scm calls are non-recursive by default" is really valid. Almost every one of my pom projects has a /src/site folder with content that I want to build in the nightly. But also, a lot of Maven projects are mid-migration from older build approaches, so being able to be more specific about what's pulled in and what's not is critical until a proper "maven- approved" structure is achieved.
