             Summary: Reorder groupId before artifactId when writing an exclusion using maven-model
                 Key: MNG-6987
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6987
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Marc Bruggmann


We are using {{maven-model}} to parse, modify, and write back a POM file roughly like so:

 
{code:java}
MavenXpp3Reader reader = new MavenXpp3Reader(); 
Model model = reader.read(new FileReader(input)); 
// make modifications to the model 
MavenXpp3Writer writer = new MavenXpp3Writer(); 
writer.write(new FileWriter(output), model);{code}
 

The exclusion shows up in the output file like this:
{code:java}
        <exclusions>
          <exclusion>
            <artifactId>plexus-cipher</artifactId>
            <groupId>org.sonatype.plexus</groupId>
          </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
{code}
In most other places in the POM, we order the groupId before the artifactId. It would be nice to do it the same way for exclusion, like so:
{code:java}
        <exclusions>
          <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.sonatype.plexus</groupId>
            <artifactId>plexus-cipher</artifactId>
          </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
{code}
