I looked at the new plugin groups stuff and have a couple ideas/ suggestions.

I'm going to create a framework plugin group. Is there some reason this won't work?

I'd like to see the plugin groups distributed closer to where their components are found, e.g. web-jetty in plugins/jetty. Does this seem reasonable?

I think the car-maven-plugin can use another packaging style for these plugin groups that will mean we don't have to configure much of anything for the c-m-p. Maybe we won't need the empty plan either.

I thought the idea was to use only the plugin groups when assembling our actual servers. Is this work still in progress? It looks to me as if we have both a complete list of plugins plus the plugin groups that would also pull them in.

Also I think we can modify the assemble-server lifecycle to use the no-dependency-change mojo to check when stuff changes-- in particular when we just use plugingroups for (most) servers.

Maybe I messed something up but in my new server constructed using my new framework plugin group the plugin group itself is started. I think we need to prevent this.... anyone know how?
