Actually, no, I can't because I don't know what it'll be... I've heard words like "Unified Source Directory" but I don't know what it means yet. I'm not following the m2 mailing list too closely yet (I'll hopefully start this very soon now - I've wanted to do it for a while now).
But what I am sure of is that this need is taken care of in Maven2. Maybe someone else can explain?
