Maybe a silly question, and sorry if I have missed a previous discussion
about this:
Why is it important to differentiate between plugins and non-plugin
libraries in the maven coordinates?

Now that I see them aggregated in this nice table, thank you James, I think
it would be a lot cleaner if we could strip the plugin part in both group
and artifactId for many or all of these:

org.apache.grails:grails-codecs
org.apache.grails:grails-controllers
org.apache.grails:grails-databinding
org.apache.grails:grails-datasource
org.apache.grails:grails-domain-class
org.apache.grails:grails-i18n
org.apache.grails:grails-interceptors
org.apache.grails:grails-mimetypes
org.apache.grails:grails-rest-responder
org.apache.grails:grails-services
org.apache.grails:grails-url-mappings

org.apache.grails:grails-async
org.apache.grails:grails-converters
org.apache.grails:grails-events
org.apache.grails:grails-sitemesh3
org.apache.grails:grails-fields
org.apache.grails:grails-views-gsp
org.apache.grails:grails-views-gson
org.apache.grails:grails-views-markup
org.apache.grails:grails-scaffolding

org.apache.grails:grails-data-hibernate5
org.apache.grails:grails-data-hibernate6
org.apache.grails:grails-data-migration-hibernate5
org.apache.grails:grails-data-migration-hibernate6
org.apache.grails:grails-data-mongodb

org.apache.grails:grails-cache
org.apache.grails:grails-geb
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-acl
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-cas
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-core
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-ldap
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-oauth2
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-rest
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-rest-data
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-rest-grails-cache
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-rest-memcached
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-rest-redis
org.apache.grails:grails-spring-security-ui

org.apache.grails:grails-redis
org.apache.grails:grails-quartz
