When creating plugins, the field metadata is read from source files, so it is not available when the original source is not available. While the metadata is available in the plugin in META-INF/maven/plugin.xml, currently, there is no way to incorporate it when building a new plugin. It is currently recommended that plug-ins be built using composition, instead of inheritence.
