Thomas Broyer commented on MGWT-83:
-----------------------------------
Super-source shouldn't be added as source folders, for various reasons:
* it's likely that the IDE will use the super-source version for
* if you have a non-super-source and super-source versions of the same class,
its likely the IDE will be confused, and flag them as duplicates
* in a typical setup, M2Eclipse compiles classes (using Eclipse JDT) in the
same output folder as Maven (target/classes), so your super-source classes
would be not only used as super-sources, but also as compiled classes in
DevMode and Compiler: likely to fail!
At least all of the above are true in Eclipse.
It can be useful to temporary add the super-source folders as source folders to
benefit from a larger set of features from the IDE, but it's a bad idea to do
it by default (Eclipse has improved in the latest versions though when editing
a Java file outside a source folder, so it might no longer be needed at all)
I believe super-source should just be seen as resources (which they are), but
the kind of resources that only apply to compiling a GWT project (just like the
*.gwt.xml and *.ui.xml files).

> super-source can be used to add some API emulation to the GWT JRE. The plugin
