So trying to run ActiveMQ without the plugin got annoying since I'd have to define all the dependencies myself.
FWIW I did find the subversion repo: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/activemq/trunk/activemq-tooling/maven-activemq-plugin and added myself a "fork" option that when set to true spawns AMQ in a thread. Now my container tests are self-contained and run to completion. Would adding a "fork" option to the plugin make sense?
