One thing I found while working with components is that from time to time I want to act based on the configuration of the plugin.
At the moment one needs a quite complicated guess work or pass large parameter lists around or even worse parse configurations manually.
It would therefore be great if I could use the following in a component:
```java
@Inject
@Named("my.group.id:my.plugin.id")
private PlexusConfiguration config;
```
that acts as a facade to the "current active configuration of that plugin":
1. plugin not configured at all, no project context available or alike: simply use an empty configuration
2. there is a session an it has projects but no mojos are executing: return the main configuration for that plugin and the active project
3. there is a mojo execution running: return the configuration in respect to the mojo
