> For an application to run, all it's dependent assemblies must be locatable, which generally means having them copied into the same directory as the output. This is not currently the case, with the traditional Maven approach of only building the library/executable requested and relying on another plugin to assemble it into a runnable application.
> While the above is still required for a complete application, it makes some sense to have a configuration option to be able to copy the dependent libraries, *.config file, and any other files that are required (eg, in MSBuild those that are marked as <CopyToOutputDirectory/>).
> Note that for MSBuild-based projects, [workitem:12550] might make this redundant, but in general it would still be needed
