Honestly I don't feel that much friction from deployment, sure you need to set it up once, but after that it's a matter of running a build and it's done. That said, I absolutely see the value in the ability to deploy a GitHub release, and a PR for this functionality would be most welcome indeed :)
@edvin I'll hope to work on it soon. I'm not experienced with Maven plugins at all, so I'd like to start with Gradle counterpart, and then work on Maven (or even leave it to someone else to implement).

I have following suggestion to discuss. Right now, Github has it's own way to distribute apps: Releases. There are few ways to manage it:
In general, it'll lead to following actions to do:
If plans like this aligns well with your vision of project, I can help with implementation.
