One of the big wins with Maven is the "rigid" directory structure,
where source files of all stripes are in src/ and build outputs are in
target/. It's good practice because it doesn't allow for intermingling
source files and build files.

The new GWT war/ dir next to src/ problematic because you have to be
careful how you clean up.  I can see many an "aaargh!" being screamed
out in the early morning hours when a tired developer discovers a bug
in her ant script, or when he trashes the war/ dir accidentally.

I would much rather have seen src/java and src/war (better yet, src/
webapp) and the HostedMode compiler would copy src/webapp to war/
before compilation. It would be a whole lot safer and wouldn't really
cost that much, even for large projects with a whole lotta webapp/**
