> Over the last couple of years people demanded to always pass arguments down to Maven without supplying it specifically or repeat for every project over and over again in {{maven.config}}. Arguments like {{-B}} or {{-V}}.
> A new environment variable {{MAVEN_ARGS}} can be passed *before* the actual CLI arguments.
> Ideal precedence:
> {{MAVEN_ARGS}} is overwritten by {{maven.config}} is overwritten by CLI arguments. General to specific. Unfortunately, since {{MAVEN_ARGS}} will be passed just like CLI arguments there is no way to detect that these arguments came either via CLI or {{MAVEN_ARGS}}
> One option would be to add separator token which would be dropped internally thus makes it possible to differentiate between both, e.g,, {{MAVEN_ARGS_START [ARGS...] MAVEN_ARGS_STOP}}.
