I don't edit with Eclipse. With IntelliJ I just open the root pom.xml file. Did you try "mvn eclipse:eclipse"
Here is the output I got from that command, which gives you Eclipse .classpath files for most of the source: [INFO] Wrote Eclipse project for "maven-pluto-plugin" to /Users/dtaylor/apache/portals/pluto/maven-pluto-plugin.
