I think that you might be talking about what was reported in
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-553 .  This issue was reported a
long time ago and doesn't seem to be getting much attention anymore...
Maybe a few more votes for it?

No idea if it takes userid/password on the command line, but there is
some work in the gpg plugin to prompt for a passphrase (and mask it).
Perhaps that could be borrowed.

(wagon-webdav isn't a plugin, is it?  I only know it as an artifact
that needs to be configured as a build extension or otherwise added to
Maven since it doesn't support dav by default.)
