> With J2SE 1.5 and the {{java.lang.instrument}} package, new manifest attributes have been introduced: {{Pre-Main-Class}}, {{Agent-Class}}, {{Boot-Class-Path}}, etc. (see http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/instrument/package-summary.html for a complete list). It would be great if the maven-archiver could support these as well as it supports the very similar {{Main-Class}} and {{Class-Path}} manifest attributes. (Note, however, that the attributes introduced require the use of JARs; they are not completely independent of the archive format, so maybe maven-archiver is not a perfect fit.)
