------------------------------------------------------------------------
[~elharo], I was actually hoping for the feature to be made working, because it
would do something valuable if it worked. I am not sure it is a good idea to
simply hide something in the docs that exists as a plugin option or to
completely remove the whole thing, just because nobody feels like fixing it.

> Option 'tagletpath' not working, completely ignored
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAVADOC-775
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-775
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: javadoc
> Affects Versions: 3.6.0
> Reporter: Alexander Kriegisch
> Priority: Major
>
> The [{{tagletpath}}
> option|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/aggregate-mojo.html#tagletpath]
> seems to be completely ignored, despite being documented. It looks as if
> this never worked before. It is also utterly untested. There is an old bug
> MJAVADOC-231, but whatever that was meant to fix, it seems to be unrelated to
> this one. If I have a local JAR unavailable on Maven Central sitting in a
> libraries folder, I cannot use it in any other way than to contrive to put a
> copy into my local Maven repository and use {{tagletArtifact}} instead of
> {{tagletpath}}.
> I noticed this, when trying to help someone asking a question on the [Maven
> users mailing
> list|https://lists.apache.org/thread/zv25z3hx9gbmbt6wwhby6cy0t5lr542l]. In
> his [sample repository|https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn], an effort
> to convert the Xalan Ant Build to Maven, the commit to check out is is
> [6daf2890|https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn/tree/6daf2890bc03b13cd741b963d33897d61dcf4e5f].
> Just run {{mvn -DskipTests=true site}}.
