outputDirectory to support absolute paths
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: MASSEMBLY-136
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-136
             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Kalle Korhonen
            Priority: Minor


Can you please make the assembly parameter "outputDirectory" support absolute 
paths, just like "directory" in fileSets. Currently all paths are relative to 
the root directory of the assembly, whether or not you specify the path 
separator in the beginning or not.  I see no reason why it should only support 
relative paths.

I'm using assembly:directory to deploy some resources for my unit/integration 
tests that are normally available on a production environment. I realize I'm 
using the plugin "the wrong way", but the directory goal and format isn't 
suitable for deploying to the repository anyways.

Also, either I don't know how to use appendAssemblyId correctly or it doesn't 
work for directory format.
