Now I understand. The problem is that Maven does not know upfront that a
plugin *might* possibly produce an artifact. That is correct, obviously, and
thank you for pointing me to that fact.

So actually the only "correct" solution would be to write a set of plugins
and a workflow, e. g. a "PowerBuilder Workflow", provide new types like
<type>powerbuilder-exe</type> and <type>powerbuilder-resource-zip</type> and
so on, and tell the plugins in their own code how to share information.
Understood.

Thank you for your patience, now I know how a smart solution is to be build.
AND I know that Maven is not the bad guy here, but it is our own laziness,
as we could simply write such a workflow! :-)
