BUT the point that I was making was that Maven must resolve the plugin before the build commences... that means that the plugin must exist in a repository (or cache) already, and that is the version that will be used for the current build cycle...

Therefor the current build will always use the version of the plugin that was built BEFORE the build started, NOT the version that is actually getting built.
I have never thought about it, but it sounds *utterly* possible! Astonishing! I'm so surprised that I couldn't resist and ask a question about it in the Maven user mailing list. I'm awaiting their response hoping there's an elegant solution to it (not a workaround). There must be a solution.
