Plugins to take version ranges
------------------------------

          Key: MNG-3799
          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3799
        Project: Maven 2
      Issue Type: Improvement
      Components: Plugin API
  Affects Versions: 2.0.6
     Environment: Linux: Kubuntu 8.04.1
       Reporter: D Lester


For dependencies the user can specify a version range but this is not allowed for plugins - only an explicit version is allowed.

In a development environment, it is useful to get new versions of plugins as they become available - so that code can be tested and integrated with the latest plugin version.

The proposed enhancement is to allow ranges in plugins in the same way as dependencies.
