> If a plugin fails for any reason, a general message is logged with a
> reference to a wiki page, which never contains the real reason why the plugin
> failed.
> For new users this is very confusing. Even when we teach them to read, and
> they finally see a link, it's quite frustrating for them that they still
> don't know what happened.
> {{MojoExecutionException}} and {{MojoFailureException}} should never refer to
> a wikipage anymore.
> Plugin writers should get more control over the message written to the
> console.
