Description

Things I'd like to see - support for (in order of preference):

• renaming a definition
• duplicating an existing definition
• a broader selection of the command line options to chose from (see https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.8.4/maven-embedder/cli.html, not all of them make sense - especially not the ineffective ones; -D<property>, -N & -P are already supported by the controls present. It is also possible to work around this, by prefixing some of them in the 'Execute Goals:' entry field. But duplicating the "Global Execution Options" Control from the previous Panel would probably the most generic solution, and maybe even the one requiring the least work. and the easiest to understand by newbies)
• Expand the option, to filter availability of the goals from just the packaging (in order of preference - to) groupId, artifactId, name, buildDir, parent.groupId, parent.artfactId, parent.name.
