       Body:
Do we really want to encourage unversioned jars?   

The jar has a version, just that some clown from XXX didn't put it in the name.  


I personally think we should go the other way and make <version> a mandatory element 
of dependency.

Description:
Just something that occurred to me the other day. If I have:

    <dependency>
      <id>javamail</id>
    </dependency>

It really should be smart and look for javamail.jar and not javamail-.jar.

There's enough in the way of non-versioned jars [especially from sun] that
this would be a nice pain reducer.
