I don't see a real explanation of why this automatic fallback shouldn't be implemented. What would that break? Isn't a 



Being able to do scm:update whatever the pom contains sounds closer to the maven philosophy to me. So there should be an automatic fallback mecanism.

If fallback by default is not an option, consider something like
