Submitting an RFE in JIRA for this is the right approach.
However, realize that your RFE has the best chance of actually being
implemented in Maven if you do the grunt (code and test) work and then
contribute it for future versions of the deploy plugin. And of course
not everyone will want to use this "feature" or might want to keep
varying numbers of old snapshots so you'll want to add some
configuration etc.

Right, but my assumption is that this purging would happen when Maven
is deploying a new version, so it would have to rewrite the metadata
files anyway.
The process I'm after would look something like this, keeping only,
say, the most recent three versions:
for f in `ls -t *.pom | sed -e '1,3d; s/\.pom$//'`; do
rm $f.pom{,.md5,.sha1} $f.jar{,.md5,.sha1};
done
with the metadata files updated to match.
Should I submit a JIRA issue as a request for enhancement?
