This is possible in this particular case (all the Java 22 code is in separate packages, the testsuite can accommodate that it is missing and has no specific tests). However, I have a hard time believing it would actually help as a Tomcat developer. I often don't bother adding Ant so the ide complains about catalina.ant packages, and I happily ignore it. Also it is not bad if new developers are aware of FFM.
