Uhm, I don't duplicate anything, that's why I use a symlink. :)

(S)He can point his appserver directly to the exploded directory.

Eh it's not that bad. ;) Only `rep', `sites', `templates' and other
non-java files.

I've got now:

+ Project
| 
+-----------+ resources
|           |
|           +- rep
|           +- sites
|           +- templates
|
+-----------+ src
|           |
|           +- implementations
|           +- java
|
+-----------+ WEB-INF

I like it and think that it's pretty clean like that.

But I won't be able to convince you about IDEA anyway. ;)

Well, I am. ;)
