yea I got that from another question that i asked on this list that Benjamin
Bentmann helped me solve.
I must have read that "The combine.* attributes are however inherited along
a hierarchy of POMs" wrong, or was hoping it meant that I could use it with
other elements beyond configuration but it doesn't seem to work here.
Benson, yea I know that I could overwrite executions (thought I mentioned
that in my OP) but unfortunately some of these have quite a few (5 or more)
executions and overwriting them at this time doesn't guarantee that they
won't add more later.
