Description

The following works -

<packagingExcludes>
   WEB-INF/lib/activation-1.0.2.jar,WEB-INF/lib/activation-1.1.jar,WEB-INF/lib/cglib-2.1_3.jar,WEB-INF/lib/bcprov-jdk14-119.jar
</packagingExcludes>

The following will not

<packagingExcludes>
   WEB-INF/lib/activation-1.0.2.jar,WEB-INF/lib/activation-1.1.jar,WEB-INF/lib/cglib-2.1_3.jar,\
   WEB-INF/lib/bcprov-jdk14-119.jar
</packagingExcludes>

In some large builds many repeat JARs need to be filtered out. A newline char capability would make the pom.xml more readable.

Why don't you just add a regular line break, i.e. without the '\' character? Doesn't that work?
