Description

1. It is possible to execute a lifecycle phase
2. It is possible to execute a plugin goal (using the plugin's configuration defined at plugin level (not at execution level))
3. It is NOT possible to execute a plugin execution using its execution-id.(using the configuration on execution level)

I have several use cases in which i want to execute a plugin from the command line with different configurations. This is now not possible.other than misusing profiles for this.
