That'll be a good start. But probably more consideration might be needed to support different kinds of J2EE servers out there. Would be reasonable for IDEA to "discover" the EJB's (or EJB group as you called it) in a project? For example, scan for the ejb-jar.xml and figure out the classes and resources.
Also, this is where the Open API would come in handy. Every EJB group can have a context menu item, say, "Build EJB", and user can tie that menu item to an external task or an ant task. I think I'll be good.
What do you guys think?
Thanks,
Mike Liu

Jacques,
EJB support in IDEA is in its very early stage and many questions are
still open & many decisions are arguable.
After small discussion we'd like to propose the following modification
to the EJB configuration. Every EJB group will consist of the EJB source
path and the arbitrary set of files. All files you add to the EJB group
will be shown in the EJB view under the group's node (you can add e.g.
jndi.properties there for faster access). If you add specify ejb-jar.xml
file to the group, its information will be used for determining EJB
structure. What do you think?
Best regards,
Mike Aizatsky.
