There are web sites like http://mvnrepository.com/ letting to search for an "artifact" and giving a definition I can add to my project for a library to be downloaded automatically from a public repository.
But this particular example (mvnrepository.com) (the only working I know actually) is by-definition limited to "search by group, artifact or description" while I would like to search by a class full name. For example I'd like to enter org.apache.commons.lang.NotImplementedException to get <dependency org="commons-lang" name="commons-lang" rev="2.6"/> (or alike) as the answer. Is there a facility for this?

To browse the content of central maven repository, maven community has provided a URL − https://search.maven.org/#browse. Using this library, a developer can search all the available libraries in central repository.
Maven Central, a.k.a. the Central Repository, is the default repository for Maven, SBT, Leiningen, and many other JVM based build tools. It has been around since 2002, and serves many terabytes of assets every year. Maven Central also has a search site.
Maven Central is a popular repository hosting open source libraries for consumption by Java projects. To declare the Maven Central repository for your build add this to your script: Example 1. Adding central Maven repository. build.gradle.
In the POM, right-click anywhere in the editor to open the context menu and select Maven | Show Dependencies. Alternatively, press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U or Ctrl+Alt+U . In the diagram window, IntelliJ IDEA displays the sub project and all its dependencies including the transitive ones.
If you like to search for Classes you should use http://search.maven.org and click on "Advanced search"...This is for Maven Central

The answer of @khmarbaise is straight and correct, but if you possibly want to search over few additional public Maven repos (like JBoss), not only Maven Central, I recommend using http://grepcode.com.
EDIT: Unfortunately it seems http://grepcode.com, I used to strongly recommend for such a stuff, is dead now. Currently I don't know a better place than https://search.maven.org, already answered by @khmarbaise.
