> Currently the only way to provide access to the classpath which consists of 
> the project artifacts within some scope from a plugin is to manually create 
> your own classloader inside the plugin using project.getCompileClasspath() or 
> somesuch. In many plugins (thinking of integration-tests where the project is 
> NOT an appserver module), it would be most useful to have the plugin 
> container started with the appropriate project-classpath already added to the 
> container. This might even be nice for testing plexus projects, and would 
> allow the plugin to simply instantiate (somehow) and use compiled classes in 
> order to run tests.
> Jesse even tells me this would be useful from a process-classes phase, in 
> order to gather info about the classes that were compiled.
> I propose the following modifications:
> 1. Add addProjectClasspath="scope" (where scope = {compile,test...}) 
> configuration for the maven-plugin-plugin, alongside prefix or whatever else 
> we use to define the plugin-level metadata.
> 2. For plugins declaring addProjectClasspath, add the appropriate project 
> classpath to the plugin container before calling the mojo.
