Description

This is an idea comming from this thread :
http://www.nabble.com/Hibernate-feedback-about-Maven-usage.-td25137434.html
And more particularly from this blog post :
http://relation.to/12116.lace

The idea is to not have to set the -pl option, and use the current module for it. Maven will have to search the reactor through parents to construct and launch the build.
