[jira] [Created] (MNG-7669) Add artifact-type for Tycho

Christoph Läubrich created MNG-7669:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Add artifact-type for Tycho
                 Key: MNG-7669
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7669
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Christoph Läubrich


Since a while Tycho is going more and more "maven-like" so today even more Tycho artifacts approaching at maven-central.

In some circumstances this leads to strange problems, because Dependencies have a *type* (usually the packaging type) but artifacts have an *extension* (where different packaging types often map to the same extension), and maven only includes a few mappings by default users currently need to enable an extension so that this works.

I therefore like to gently ask adding a mapping to the default maven supported list that maps tycho-plugin (*type*) -> jar (*extension*).

It would be great if it could be included in maven 3.9.0 (would be a good argument to move on to newer maven version for our users!)!
