Improve plugin API to ease configuration sharing between plugins
----------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-831
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-831
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement
  Components: maven-plugin-api  
    Versions: 2.0-beta-1    
 Reporter: Mark Hobson


Plugins that need to introspect other plugin's configuration have to go via the 
Xpp3Dom configuration object.  It'd be nice if this was easier for plugin 
authors.  Some current use-cases are:

* Eclipse plugin requires compiler plugin's configuration to write .settings 
file
* Tomcat plugin requires war plugin's configuration to locate final war file 
and exploded state
