looks promising!
I'm sure I miss big parts of the picture, but please allow me a few (probably
dumb) questions.
This means that an artifact is uniquely identified via the URL of the server we
downloaded it from?
No. This is just an alternative implementation of the mirror-selection
logic already in Maven, and powered by the mirrors listing in the
settings.xml. Instead of requiring all of that one-off configuration in
every user's settings.xml, this approach uses a JSON file on a server
(by default, the canonical location would be somewhere on
repository.apache.org most likely) to supply the list of mirrors from
which to select.
The rest of the artifact-handling logic in Maven is the same.
What about distributing artifacts to different locations? Kind of a
redundancy for maven.central. Is this already targeted (and I don't see
it yet), or a completely different story?
If artifacts (+pom+-...) served from different locations have the same sha-1,
then I won't bother where to take it from (albeit they must be 'reachable' aka
available in at least one enabled repo).

I really like this feature suggest,
and it would be a must-have if also
backported to maven2 !
Having to maintain mirroring based on declared repositories
ID is a pain,
especially when transitive dependencies pull multiple IDs
for the same repo
URL. From your schema, it seems the routing rules are based
on target URL,
that would solve this with a centralized setup.
I'll take a look at code ASAP.

So you're saying it would work with existing
releases of Maven, like
2.2.1?
I'd be very interested to see that.

I'll have to flesh it out to
