In case it's of use to anyone else, I implemented this in a fork:

https://github.com/ispringer/exec-maven-plugin

and published a release to:

https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/thirdparty-releases/org/codehaus/mojo/exec-maven-plugin/1.2.1.jbossorg-3/

NOTE: Don't use the 1.2.1.jbossorg-1 release - it is broken!

Just wondering: why not attach a patch here?

I needed a released (i.e. published to a Maven repo) version of the plugin asap, so it was most expedient for me to fork it and cut my own release. I hope a committer can incorporate it back in to the mainline and cut a release that includes it (it should be trivial to generate a patch from the fork). If that happens, I'll happily switch back to the new mainstream release.

For the record, I forked off of the 1.2.1 tag, since I wasn't sure if HEAD was 100% stable.

FYI, our Bamboo-server verifies the code with every commit, both unit and integration-tests.
For me it's not that trivial to generate a patch from the fork and apply it on the trunk.
So if you could create the patch and contribute it here, you could make several people quite happy.
