JSW has a lot of stuff in it that is more than just 'generate scripts'; it has all those other configuration files that come into play. So I confess to some small skepticism about the idea that it is possible to generalize the two. However, my lack of imagination shouldn't stop someone else.
It seems essential to me to do this in a way that allows users to do simple things simply. I don't think that it makes sense to mark anything deprecated until _after_ a release of a version in which there is a version of your second goal that can be used for both JSW and command-line straightforwardly. How about, as a first step, some mocked-up <configuration/> elements that show your vision of a merged version? Maybe this plugin should really have an outboard descriptor, like 'assembly', so that there could be standard defaults for the common cases.
