--------------------------------------

I've been using maven-dependency-plugin and maven-javadoc-plugin to basically replicate the steps you describe:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <id>get-javadoc-sources</id>
      <goals>
        <goal>unpack-dependencies</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
        <classifier>sources</classifier>
        <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/sources</outputDirectory>
      </configuration>
    </execution>
  </executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <id>create-javadocs</id>
      <phase>prepare-package</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>javadoc</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
        <sourcepath>${project.build.directory}/sources</sourcepath>
      </configuration>
    </execution>
