Rupert Smith commented on MOJO-932:
-----------------------------------

I agree with Steven Cummings that the Maven 1 dashboard was genuinely useful, 
whereas the fancier Maven 2 one, whilst pretty is not. In fact, I consider it 
to the the 'killer' app for Maven 1, and for a long time was the one thing that 
kept me on Maven 1 rather than moving to Maven 2. It provides a very usefull, 
at-a-glance overview of your build state.

The Maven 1 changes for MOJO-847 are extremely welcome, and means that I can 
start using this plugin to good effect.

Things I'd like to see:

The ability to turn off the drill down into the fancy Maven 2 dashboard graphs. 
Who cares what the distribution of errors/warnings on the fancy 3d pie chart 
is. I suppose it does not cause any harm to leave it in.

Ability to refine the columns in the global Maven 1 style overview. For 
example, I'd like to be able to cut it down to Num tests, % passed, Num lines 
code, % covered by tests, num checkstyle errors, and that is about it. 
Obviously others will have their preferences.

Why does the config file have to be on the compile classpath? Config files in 
other maven plugins are given as absolute or relative paths.
