Description

If I include a nonsense plugin in my pom it will still build successfully every time without warnings.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">

      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

The model parser doesn't complain, and I can use enforcer rules to check the OS, JDK, but not the plugins. I have to run dependency:resolve-plugins to get an error. In a multi-module build this is repeated for each project. I only need this to happen once, for all those plugins defined in pluginManagement of my top project.
