Another follow-up finally with a proper solution for the future:
The upcoming 2.5 version of the maven-eclipse-plugin will feature a
new configuration setting "workspaceCodeStylesURL" that allows to
reference an Eclipse codestyle xml file, which will be used for
projects created with mvn eclipse:eclipse. The documentation is
already online, although it's currently 2.5-SNAPSHOT and cannot be
used yet easily:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/examples/load-code-styles.html
Once 2.5 is out, this could be integrated into Jackrabbit's root pom
along with putting the file with Jackrabbit's specific settings into
the svn.

Alex
