I think the idea is not completely new - have a look at
https://github.com/jdoklovic/maven-cli-plugin/wiki for an implementation
for maven 2 and a rudimentary maven 3 support to get the idea.
Looking forward to what Takari will bring.

A Maven shell? Interesting idea, how does that work? It seems like the idea
behind maven is set it and forget it.

Hi,
As some may know, a lot of work has been done at tesla.io on various
advanced features in Maven but, unfortunately, not enough work for these
features to see the light of day. It wouldn't be surprising if Maven
users
have no idea what these features are because I've not done a great job at
communicating about the work. Some of the work is mine, some of other
major
contributors, and more recently from key customers.
To make a long story short there's a lot of cool stuff to talk about, and
the work as a new venue at takari.io! I'll be giving a webinar next week
and here are some of the features I'd like to talk about:
- Polyglot support: Ruby, Groovy, and Scala DSLs. These have all been
actively worked on in the recent past, especially the Ruby and Scala
DSLs.
- Full incremental support: the complete Maven lifecycle including an
incremental command line compiler based on JDT, all with m2e integration
- Aggressive parallelization: a new parallelization mode that also
optimizes scheduling based on critical path analysis
- Generations: a new form of continuous delivery for Maven -- Smart delta
protocol and no more SNAPHOTs!
- Shell: long-lived CLI process for Maven
Much of this work is functional, and the new parallelization mode and
generations support are actively being used in production. We are still
iterating on these specific features but they show a lot of promise.
Where
all of this code eventually lands is a question for the Maven development
community. All of this work was developed outside of Apache, and how easy
it is to integrate back into the Maven project remains to be seen. At the
very least there is a lot of very interesting work and I wanted to start
the dialog because Maven just isn't going to die :-)
So please join us for a webinar, Tuesday, January 21 at 11:30AM EST (UTC
-5 hours) to learn more about what we're working on and what we're trying
to accomplish.
