Support for lazy loading of jars
--------------------------------

                 Key: MWEBSTART-43
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWEBSTART-43
             Project: Maven 2.x Webstart Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
         Environment: any
            Reporter: fdb


support for lazy loading of jars by declaring wich packages are available in 
the jar + defining what the main artifact is that should be eagerly loaded

<package name="com.foo.splashscreen.*" part="splashscreen"  recursive="true"/>
<jar href="foo-splashscreen.jar" part="splashscreen" main="true" 
download="eager"/>

<package name="org.jfree.chart.*" part="jfreechart" recursive="true"/>
<package name="org.jfree.data.*" part="jfreechart" recursive="true"/>
<jar href="jfreechart-1.0.2.jar" part="jfreechart" download="lazy"/>

...

in the above example the splashscreen is a small jar that loads quickly, that 
jar invokes the main application using Class.forName()...
this in combination with pack200 gives you the fastest startup
