I think this would be a worthwhile addition to JIRA. I'm not sure if
it's already in there. I know it was pointed out as an issue a while
ago and we were going to look at changing the behaviour from automatic
append to controlled appending by expressions like you've highlighted
in a future version of the POM.

Would you mind filing it?

I think there needs to be some additional POM elements that allows a
parent POM to provide defaults to a child POM that are different from
the values used by the parent POM itself.

Here's an example:

In my parent POM, I want to say

<url>http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/</url>

But I want all my child modules to use the URL:

<url>http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/${pom.artifactId}</url>


I could see this expressed, in my parent pom, as something like:

<project> ...
  <url>http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/</url>

  ...

  <childDefaults>
    <url>http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/${pom.artifactId}</url>
  </childDefaults>
