If anyone actually wants this to happen, you probably need to file a
JIRA issue so this can be considered in 2.0.x (or 2.1). William, your
idea could perhaps even be implemented in 2.0.x.

Discussions like this, esp on the Users list, generally do not result
in new functionality as there are simply too many things to keep track
of...

I was actually thinking that the "validate" phase would only compile a

So essentially you'd break up and move the monolithic "validate" phase
into a series of "mini-validates" that fire immediately before every
other lifecycle phase, to validate the artifacts necessary for (only)
that phase are available.

I think it would complicate things a bit, but it doesn't sound
unreasonable.
