Research direction

Start by locating where the global mavenizer cache directory is configured and how projects currently access it. Define how an override is supplied, then verify that separate projects can use distinct cache directories for testing.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Would be useful for testing, so that multiple projects don't share the same mavenizer cache.
