Adding a packaging type to the Dependency plugin

Is there a more straightforward way to add support for a custom
packaging type to the dependency plugin aside from just customizing
the components.xml, forking the plugin, and publishing your own custom
build?    I'm assuming the answer is no because I see that there is an
UnArchiver with a "swc" role hint in the dependency plugin's
components.xml?

You could probably also add it to a jar and add that as a dependency in the
plugin block of your pom. The archiver looks up the unarchiver impl and it
needs to be known to plexus.
