Does the issue make sense now, and is it worth filing a JIRA ticket for this?

It makes sense.

Filed then: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5059

Not sure how it would be implemented, however. The current list of options is not just a superficial piece of logic in org.apache.maven.cli but seems baked into how MavenExecutionRequest is defined.

I'm not sure how many people would use this - it's quite some entry complexity 
to gain a little more runtime efficiency.

I was thinking of using a feature like this from an IDE or other scripted 
environment, in which case a slightly more complex command is no obstacle.

I've always thought the solution to these type of problems was to invest more 
effort in incremental builds (don't run tests if no code + dependencies 
changed).

That would be useful too, but requires work on the part of plugins (here, 
Surefire).
