Config is the way to go. I don't even think that pom properties work, it
has to be Java system properties (i.e. specified on command line).

@Anders, on the contrary, pom properties work quite well.
@Jo, one consideration I think you missed is when configuring several
plugins with the same value it's handy (best?) to have that value
maintained in a single location. We do this in our poms, and I've seen it
in others, for things like

I concur. I've used both approaches, and both did exactly what they were
supposed to (verified by checking Maven output at debug verbosity).

My rule of thumb.
If you only need the value in one place... Don't use a property, they cause
more trouble than they're worth
If you need the same value in two or more places, the problems with
properties are less than the risk of being out of sync, so use the property.

versions of dependencies and plugins.
By this testing new versions in real projects is much easier.
