A POM cannot provide code. For example, it cannot provide a jar file
with the current LICENSE.txt or NOTICE.txt. A plugin can. In other
words, my proposal would enable to use the maven-asf-plugin in the asf
parent POM.
isn't that what the remote-resources plugin is for ?

Yes, but the RAT plugin is usefull beyond the ASF. For example, I
might use it to verify that the source files contain my companies
copyright headers, not the ASF's. My proposal would mean that the
maven-asf-plugin would use the RAT plugin. (More precisely, it's jar
file, because unfortunately a plugin cannot use another plugin
directly, doesn't it?)

There is no reason not to do reuse such tools in the plugin. The main
idea would be to simplify the process.
