title: Maven global plugin configuration
body: <p>I'd like to have a plugin configuration that will not exist inside the <code>pom.xml</code> file (and also in any project files).</p>
  
  <p>What I want to do is to have a plugin that will be used only by me on my workstation. Specifically, I want to deploy my project onto the Tomcat 7 container and for this I want to use Apache Tomcat Maven Plugin, but since different developers may want to use different servers or entire ways of deployment I don't want to put this configuration into the <code>pom.xml</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible in Maven to have such global/user-specific plugin configuration?</p>
