Hans, First congratulations for getting started such a badly needed feature around JBoss.
I just saw the package Xdoclet-View in your plan and this reminded me of some unfinished prototype that I did last year. It was an experiment of how to write some extensible view for editing meta-data that is similar to the Together/J-Property pane and that is based on doclet annotations (a lot of the single-source technology of Together was implemented that way and it worked nicely IMHO!). The "javadoc" view has some default editors for the standard tags and you should be able to extend it with additional editors for special tags such that you can derive special views for Entity Beans, Session Beans, Web Services, ... I got it to work to the point that the view extracts information from the java model, writes edit changes back into the java/text model and registers as an update listener in the text model. The view still fails in the issue that events inside Eclipse are not very well-ordered, i.e., the view will receive text events before the java model decides that the selected property does not exist anymore. This leads to nasty "glitches" which hindered me of publishing any code yet and since then, I did not dive deeper into the Eclipse platform. I guess that you have more knowledge in that direction and hence JBoss-IDE would be the ideal host for the code to prosper? Just tell me if you are interested and I will zip you the stuff.
