             Summary: add plugin excludes feature
                 Key: MPIR-375
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-375
             Project: Maven Project Info Reports Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: dependency-management
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Hervé Boutemy


M2E has a trick to disable warnings when some plugins are not supported by M2E: by configuring a fake org.eclipse.m2e:lifecycle-mapping plugin in pluginManagement, M2E detects and gets the configuration while nothing is executed during Maven build

But during reporting, this fake/inexistent plugin is downloaded and an annoying failure is shown as error:
{noformat}[INFO] Generating "Plugin Management" report --- maven-project-info-reports-plugin:3.0.0:plugin-management
[INFO] Could not build project for: lifecycle-mapping:Error resolving project artifact: Failure to find org.eclipse.m2e:lifecycle-mapping:pom:1.0.0 in https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/ was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced for project org.eclipse.m2e:lifecycle-mapping:pom:1.0.0{noformat}
with 3 level of nested stacktrace (not shown here for brevity)

it would be useful to be able to exclude this fake plugin from the MPIR report, then avoid this nasty error
