First alpha alpha alpha release available here (binary only, not for any reason though)

And an extra goal for xdoc

This version probably won't work through proxies!

    Summary: Create a web link checker plugin
       Type: New Feature

     Status: Assigned
   Priority: Major

 Time Spent: Unknown
   Estimate: 0 minutes

    Project: maven
  Component: None

Environment: All

Description:
I propose (and am willing to implement) a web link checker for all generated html documents.

My initial plan would be to use jtidy or similar to process the html and then validate the links.

It would reuse proxies set for the project.
It would utilise the online / offline flag (no link checking offline).
It would generate a report listing failed links
It would allow a user to set links to ignore (via regex)
