I've worked on 5+ projects where they ranged from 75-150 maven projects.
Allow this configuration would have simplified and reduce build times. The
usual work around I've seen is developers creating scripts to manually navigate
to dependencies within the same multi module project structure. When you have
10-40 developers working on a project I would prefer maven to handle this so
everyone uses mvn clean install, instead of scripts being email or shared
around or random scripts littering the repo.
I've created a very basic project which demonstrates what I would like to
allow happen and current fails.
