The reason is to have reproducible builds. It makes sure that, no matter

Specifying versions for all plugins is considered a best practice. This
has been discussed a lot on the Maven mailing-lists. I can give you some
  pointers if you like.

Dennis, you don't understand my point. I do not oppose version numbers
in general. I am simply asking to restrict version numbers to those
plugins, which are actually used in a pom file. As soon as the
commons-parent pom *is* using the mrr plugin, then I'm all in favour
for adding a version number.

You don't ask to add a version number for the war plugin, just because
projects *could* use the war plugin, do you?

Yes I would. If one or more of our components was using the war plugin, then I would ask for the version of the war plugin to be added to the pluginManagement element in commons-parent.
