Brett Porter closed MNG-4858.
-----------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 3.0.1

Fixed in r1005860. After discussing with Benjamin, decided not to go for an 
IllegalArgumentException as it would not represent a clear error link to the 
user receiving it. Instead, the empty goal or overspecified goal (goal:toomany) 
are sent to the MojoNotFoundException so the user ends up getting back valid 
choices of goals from the plugin in question.

> NullPointerException if goal name is malformed
