Stephen had an idea for it in Model 5.0.0[1], and IIRC I still had my concerns. It is still a draft with a lot of ideas, that hasn't really been discussed yet, because it was still out of reach. However, we're getting closer

Today projects are no more just about creating a jar - war are no more about java etc... - most of the time (frontend, living doc, build time generation, security validation, ....). Indeed you can force to bind plugins to existing phases but it is quite hard, unatural and rarely maintainable in time: whatever you do, you want a custom packaging using a custom lifecycle (to be able to run separately phases of the build - and sometimes independently, mvn frontend not depending of mvn package or mvn compile would be neat but not required for me). So the extension i have in mind will handle both or wouldnt be usable. About loosing the convention, after fighting for 7 years to not respect it, I think the ecosystem changed and we must accept it as bazel and gradle do. Does not mean we break ourself, we keep our default, it just means an application must be able to redefining its own lifecycle+packaging (which is a pair named a build ;)). Think we can't stack plugin on a single phase anymore, having 5+ plugins on pre-package is very hard to maintain and share in a team - plus it doesnt really makes sense on a build point of view. Indeed we can add phases as we have process classes after compile, prepackage before package etc.. but it stays arbitrary for maven project dev and does not reflect the agility projects take these days IMHO and if done in our core delivery it would slow down most build for no gain so it must be in user land IMHO. Hope it makes more sense presented this way.
