Actually, a module is just a relative path and can in fact go up.
So the definition of "below" is not necessarily synonymous with
"nested" or "inside". 

Wild suggestion...

Instead of 

<modules>
  <module>a</module>
  <module>../b</module>
</modules>

use terminology that we know (e.g. aggregate) and re-use terminology from the 
parent element for relative project/POM references

<aggregation>
  <relativePath>a</relativePath>
  <relativePath>../b</relativePath>
</aggregation>
