So do I. I've tried to setup a single set of interconnected projects,
but unfortunately that does not work: in Eclipse the test dependencies
of a project are inherited from the dependent projects as well, and
there are some geotools specific test dependencies that do break
the GeoServer own tests, making development sort of impossible.

I have a variant of this setup where I have just one Eclipse instance
going and two project groups, one of geotools, and for geoserver,
open in the same workspace. Which yeah, means you have more than 100
projects open in a single Eclipse instance
