IntelliJ IDEA has a "packages" view for instance that gives you the gwt.xml and java files in the same treeview branch [1], and if you ask me, it's a shame that Eclipse has no such feature (or I haven't found it). I'm in Eclipse 99% of the time (still evaluating IDEA from time to time, not ready to switch; I run into too many Java Swing bugs in Linux with IDEA 11, some of them seem to be fixed in IDEA 12, but there are still annoying ones) so I fully understand what you're saying here, and that's the layout I've used for years. When I ask myself what a "truly mavenish" layout should be though, I rather put them in src/main/resources. But what matters most is that both work and you're free to choose what works best for you (keeping in mind that if you need/want filtering, then using src/main/resources makes it easier). Best would be to document the pros and cons of each approach IMO.
