Description

Mojos can fork a lifecycle even if the cycle is already done. If the mojo is called from a 'larger' cycle, then the forked cycle will do again the same tasks for nothing.

For example, jetty:run forks a 'compile' lifecycle. If this goal is bound to pre-integration-test phase it will perform 'compile' lifecycle again for nothing.
