Description

It would be great if we could exec a process and continue without waiting for completion. Something like Ant's exec spawn=true behavior. I'm currently using https://github.com/bazaarvoice/maven-process-plugin to achieve this

Research direction

Start by locating the plugin's exec goal and its process-handling tests. Compare the requested behavior with Ant's spawn=true and the referenced maven-process-plugin. Done means exec can launch without waiting while preserving existing blocking behavior, with tests covering both modes.
