My feeling is that hes the only one disagreeing here, so maybe we can not
make everyone happy ;-)
Beside that i find "root" confusing if it is only used to define a path but
has no other meaning.
Also as an excerpt from the discussion, I think that almost all use-cases
would better to have a property that has the full path of the current **pom.xml
file** (!).
So lets say I have a parent `pom.xml` and I use the property
`${this.location}` it should always resolve to the path of the parent pom even
if used in a child at any level. Thats simple and can be used independent of
the project structure.
