All Possible Errors
- invalid lifecycle phase (maybe same as bad CLI param, though you were talking about embedder too)
- <module> specified is not found
- malformed settings
- malformed POM
- local repository not writable
- remote repositories not available
- artifact metadata missing
- extension metadata missing
- extension artifact missing
- artifact metadata retrieval problem
- version range violation
