Joerg Schaible commented on MNG-5567:
-------------------------------------
Still I have major concerns to include this at all. Currently ZIPs are often
used as attached artifacts to transport some additional resources. With this
functionality these artifacts add suddenly all kind of unwanted transitive
dependencies. If you look at Central for ZIP artifacts then you'll have trouble
to find one that is usable as a JAR.
