As far as I know, most people use Maven 2.2.1 which requires Java 1.5.

That is partly why we added the java-1.x profiles.
They allow Java 1.5 or later to be used to run Maven, but still allow
the use of a different version of Java for compile and test.

So I see no reason why we should not update the last 3 plugins as well.
