If this were to be more than a demo, you would not want to recreate the logic for parsing Maven metadata, but rather call into the official embedding APIs.

I do not think you want to interpret <packaging>zip</packaging>; does such a packaging even exist? (Various named packagings produce *.zip artifacts which are usually 
software distributions, i.e. contain JARs and other files as entries.)
