The problem is that javadoc decides which files to run by looking at timestamp only. He does not know which files will be generated and so can not go into these to find out if it have to re-generate it or not. So touching the original files is the only solution I guess. This tag would be helpful in the original class to parse and would be updated by xdoclet.
