OK, solved using the plugin.  Simply accepting the default configuration
and then setting the project setting for Javadoc location to the location where the plugin puts it, causes a new context menu item - Open Attached Javadoc (Shift-F2) to appear in the Javadoc window. If the setting is correctly configured this opens a browser window showing the javadoc.

That is what I was looking for.

On your opened projects, it should be available any time.
If it is a jar, you must publish the source with the jar when deploying
to a repository.

Also always download sources in maven eclipse preferences may help.

    You must be omitting some important information here.  With just
    this, this isn't an m2e question, or even a Maven question.  Open up
    the Javadoc view.  Put your cursor in the editor view in the block
    comment.  Done.
