Robert Burrell Donkin commented on MSHADE-87:
---------------------------------------------

Switching to commons-compress would allow shade to be applied to a variety of 
output formats. Given the ability to declare a structure (as suggested in this 
issue) this would make shade a powerful tool for application assembly.

I would therefore favour a more general approach to the problem of structure, 
perhaps with convenience shortcuts for common formats. Not sure about the best 
way to describe it, though.

>             Project: Maven 2.x Shade Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.4
>            Reporter: Robert Scholte

> The current version of the maven-shade-plugin only support jar and equal 
> structured packaging types, but it would be great if it could shade war-files 
> as well.
> At least the following should be changed:
> * shaded classes shouldn't be placed in the root, but in WEB-INF/classes
> * shaded artifacts should be removed from WEB-INF/lib
