What do you think about this post and comments :

is how
our reactor is working.
We cannot call a build from a submodule which will automa(g)ically
call
necessary builds in others modules.
Honestly, I never understood why Maven is building modules top down
(parents
first, then childs) as opposed to the other way. Makefiles, or Ant
scripts,
are typically working the other way round and that seems much
simpler, from
my experience.
Maven doesn't internally work top down. It works with a graph and
initially determining the root of the graph was certain when starting
from the top. The reactor plugin goes another step, Maven 3.x has this
behavior built in, and with a deterministic way of knowing the root
(even if you have more projects linked in with relativePath) then
fully utilizing the graph will be reasonably straight forward.
