     Plugin descriptor, stored in <code>META-INF/maven/plugin.xml</code> in a 
plugin's jar artifact.
     This descriptor is generally generated from plugin sources, using
-    <a href="/plugins/maven-plugin-plugin/">maven-plugin-plugin</a>.
-    <p><i>Notice:</i> this documentation is generated from a Modello model but

tools may geenrated it or it could even be hand-written.

Review Comment:
   > It happens the file is written manually and it is regularly parsed by 
other tools (rarely generated I guess, it is either the official generator or 
manually done).
   
   Do you have in mind valid use cases for hand-writing the plugin descriptor ? 
If people write their plugins in a different language such as groovy, kotlin, 
Scala or whatever... ?
