We have thought about this but since it cannot prevent local snapshots it is not really a solution only a technique to limit the problem. BTW, we use TeamCity for CI, builds get farmed out to many build agents so what is in their local repo is quite random; sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.
We do keep our snapshots on a separate repo (different server port no less) but again this really doesn't help fix the problem. There is no solution (we can come up with) other than patching maven. I have done this and submitted the patch with my JIRA. Unfortunately, my JIRA got closed in favor of this JIRA w/ patch. But then this discussion started and no fix has been implemented...
