Yes, will go down this route.
Fun side note: that warning was so far mostly applied to the outputDirectory
part. But this is just the path INSIDE the zip. So most of the warnings have
been pretty much useless ;)
Will continue to work on this. Probably we might also extract the path handling
out into maven-shared-utils even. Let's see.
