To override the Maven-supplied stylesheet, copy your own and override the maven.css stylesheet in your ${basedir}/xdocs/stylesheets/ directory. You can also specify your own javadoc stylesheet by setting the maven.javadoc.stylesheet property

Also, to answer your question directly, I've never tried such a thing. But, I have some input on your idea.
I thought about making some heavy modifications to the Maven site before, but decided against it. I instead created a site the way that I wanted it and then provided links to the Maven sites for my projects. I figured it was easiest to just let Maven be Maven, and structure my site the way that I wanted it.
Do you really need links to JavaDoc, Unit tests results, and File activity reports on the same page with Flash movies and Applets? Maven seems to be for project-level documentation, and adding rich content may be mixing things that don't belong together.
Obviously, it's just my opinion - but this worked out pretty well for me.

I was wondering if anybody has attempted to make any significant cosmetic modifications to the website that is generated by "site:generate"? I'd like to do things like change the fonts and how the collapsible menus look. I'm even thinking about adding rich content like flash interfaces and applets. And I want to be able to move things around as far as the layout goes.
I'm familiar with the list of xdoc properties but it's apparent that those properties are more geared toward simplification rather than customization. I can modify the plugin itself but as soon as I download a SNAPSHOT.jar all my customizations go away.
So what I'm thinking of is sort of like what "genapp" does. First, it looks in ~/.maven/template for a customized template, and if not found, then defaults to the one in the jar. Is there a directory that "site:generate" looks in for CSS and XSL before going with the defaults?
