I'd like to make a full-fledged extension manager, and create a separate classloader/realm/container/whatever for extensions per-project inside that extension manager...this way, we can reuse the extensions approach to augmenting the build system for other things in the future...like maybe custom conflict resolution strategies, etc.

do you think that this should be held over for 2.1?

this needs to wait for 2.1, yes. it'll be hard to avoid problems with Class.forName() when we do this...it almost implies that we'll need a fresh plugin container for each plugin/project, so that the extensions container created for the project can be the parent of the plugin container. I know you can setParent(..), but that won't work if the plugin is holding references to components in a Map or something.

Not the case in either the branch or the trunk any longer.
