Supported as a plugin, yes. Part of the core, no. I'd like to get a real plugin system working ASAP, and move a large chunk of these "optional" features of maven into their own plugins project. For example, the j2ee and struts stuff are just crying out to be placed in their own project (say jakarta-turbine-maven-plugins (damn these names are getting long)) and taken out of Maven. Supporting alternate documentation systems other than the Maven "standard" (whatever that happens to be at the time) also belong in separate plugins.
