- it's interweaved into normal build messages
- users don't really see the difference between "Downloading" (transfert 
started, may eventually fail with 404) and "Downloaded" (done successfully)
- repository id is not so visible in the middle of the message
- the download url has much info in it to see: base url, groupId as directory, 
artifactId, version, and filename

adding darker color to "hide" less important info will help output reading
