Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MJAVADOC-744:
------------------------------------------------
Might require a custom doclet. The javadoc tool doesn't know about this since
these coordinates aren't in .java files. It needs to come from the javadoc
plugi, which is going to be tricky since we'd need to inject something into the
javadoc generation process.

> Priority: Minor

> Add an option to the javadoc plugin to include the Maven coordinates
> (group:artifact:version) of a class in its Javadoc.
> I noticed this morning for about the 173rd time that I could google for the
> API doc of a class I needed, but still couldn't figure out which artifact I
> needed to add to my pom.xml to include that class in my project.
