* Implications for Resolution

** Dependency Resolution

  This one is obvious...we only have access to the repositories using
  the file:// protocol and living on a truly local filesystem when
  offline.

** Plugin Resolution

  This is similar to dependency resolution. Plugin repositories not
  using file:// or not residing on a local (not shared) filesystem will

         * direct dependencies from the request will be merged with the direct dependencies from the root dependency's
         * artifact descriptor, giving higher priority to the dependencies from the request.
         *
         * @param dependencies the direct dependencies, may be {@code null}
         * @return this request for chaining, never {@code null}

We might want to separate between installation and activation, it might be nice to allow a user to activate/deactivate a plugin instead of having to uninstall and reinstall a plugin in particular cases. This would prevent having to reconfigure the plugin again. For example it might be nice to turn off LDAP authentication without having to uninstall the plugin.
