This has always been possible. All the goals for each action are editable
in the project properties, as was already stated. Set it to whatever you
need, or none. The UI does treat goalless actions as disabled in a few
places though, probably for the better!

Using defaultGoal for this purpose is a terrible idea in my opinion. Its
usage is rare, and a code search across GH shows it most usually seems tied
to install, and sometimes deploy.

Teach your students to be explicit about what they want Maven to do, on the
CLI or in their IDE.

Best wishes,

Neil
