There has been a common request to have a way to get a "reasonably full-featured" version of Groovy with all of the common functionality. This is what the current "all" pom provides. So, I think simply removing the all pom wouldn't be well received. There is certainly scope to have different packaging choices rather than just the most common and certainly scope for having a different (clearer?) name. I think though that we wouldn't want to get too fancy or it will just be confusing.
