Thinking about this, it may be a too harsh limitation of M2: plugins are meant to be independent of eachother, so you really shouldn't have to execute several plugins to achieve 1 task, or even set up something specific for another plugin.

Consider...

The 'unpacking' part has to happen before the 'copying' part.

How should I do this if I can't depend on execution order?


Ultimately this should be setup in a custom lifecycle so that it becomes a recipe for using Selenium with Maven in addition to everyone repeating this setup in their POM. Here we could probably make some fake packaging so that we would wire up a lifecycle but I think your example here indicates a need for a lifecycle that may not necessarily be associated with a packaging. With a custom lifecycle you have strick control over the ordering of goal execution.

So right now you could rip off the standard JAR lifecycle and then all you would need to do is provide the configuration for the mojos and maybe this could even be standardized for this lifecycle so that you didn't have the provide configuration, just use some conventions.
