Konrad Windszus created MNG-7572:
------------------------------------
Summary: Plugin descriptor should indicate if plugin has Maven
extensions
Key: MNG-7572
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7572
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Plugin API
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
Currently each consumer needs to decide if a Maven plugin should be loaded with
extensions or without by setting the extensions value accordingly
(https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Plugins).
Instead the plugin descriptor should have a flag which indicates whether the
plugin has extensions to load which should be automatically evaluated.
That flag should determine the default behaviour for loading extensions (which
can still be overridden for edge cases in the pom referencing the plugin with
extensions element).
