>             Project: Maven
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Plugins and Lifecycle
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.7

> As plugins declare theyre own dependencies, we sometime need to override the plugin dependencies to use a != version of the supported tool.
> In some situations, due to groupId beeing relocated, this is not possible :
> example : the axistool mojo depends on org.apache.axis:axis:1.4. To generate code for a previous version of axis, we cannot override this dependency as older axis versions use groupId "axis".
> same on the castor mojo : cannot use a newest org.codehaus.castor version as the plugin depends on groupId "castor".
