Does it make sense for it to be a tree view? I ask because it is not really a tree structure like site or tabs.

Perhaps we should look at the Lepido project http://www.eclipse.org/lepido/ that includes sitemap editors and the like, perhaps we can leverage the code in that project.

Have you looked at the Lepido project. I am curretnly trying to get it to work but I seem to be missing some plugins org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui and org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui

I looked at an early version of it (pre 3.1). I talked to Sylvain at Apachecon, he is expecting to make a release very soon.

Both the plugins you mention are from the Web Tools Project. I think that Lepido is currently being updated to work with the latest WTP milestone release. Perhaps there is a change in the packaging?

Perhaps a mail to the dev list asking when a release is planned will help us plan the way forward.

Perhaps not a tree view but maybe a form editor like the one used for Eclipse's plugin.xml files. The locationmap does not seem to be a very complex structure so perhaps something like that would work.

Yeah, a forms editor is probably more appropriate. Locationmap is pretty simple right now but it will get more complex as it progresses. However, I'd definetely consider the Lepido approach since they have a cool little editor generator that works a treat with the sitemap.xmap files. The problem with the Eclipse approach is that everything is coded in Java.
