----------------------------------------

             Summary: Ask for user defined property without echoing on console
                 Key: ARCHETYPE-444
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-444
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Mikael Ståldal


Given this archetype-metadata.xml:
     <requiredProperties>
         <requiredProperty key="domain"/>
         <requiredProperty key="username"/>
         <requiredProperty key="password"/>
     </requiredProperties>

I would like to be able to specify that the "password" property should be asked for in a secure way so that it is not echoed on console. 

This can be done using java.io.Console.readPassword().
