"want" and "(plugin)?.*maven" in the same sentence is actually bad
thinking. I'd say, at most: "You will probably be forced to use..."

I mean, maven should just take a simple local shell file with a
parameter to do
scp <artifact> <host>:<path>;
ssh <host> "cd <path> && mvn jetty:run-war"

or something similar, as any sane Makefile would do. Instead it requires
a lot of (hidden,buggy,xml-configured) java code to do every trivial
task. Which leads to a big documentation nightmare.
