I just found time to get back to that.
I think you misunderstood. I already do package the submodules and
install them to the local repository and would like to reach them from
the master module. At that point I don't have to use the dependency
plugin, the default package phase suffices. My problem is that as soon
as I install the package (or attached artifact) I loose the prefix I
added to it's name.
That's why I said I feel there is no such way and I just have to use
in the master module the dependency:copy and repeat the <artifactItem>
element for every submodule's artifact I need to download and assign
those prefixes in the master module pom (instead from the submodule's
poms)
any insight into that? or am I missing something?

I you need to repeating bunch of dependecy:copy execution in a submodules,
I's suggest that
delegate a maven to prepare that stagement area and aother other projects
can directly reference
it via relative path, or via local repository ( get that maven project to
assemable a zip file that
other modules can unpack )
