Wouldn't it be nice to have a separate Eclipse view
"M2 hierarchical view" that would : 1. be able to show in this separate view the hierarchical nature of the project, so: app/ common/ ejb/ web/ Creating this hierarchical representation could be based on the information returned by the M2 API when called on the master POM. 2. is linked with the standard Eclipse view "Project Explorer", meaning if you click 'common' in the hierarchical view, then it would: 2.1 automatically create/update the Eclipse settings for 'common' 2.2 automatically close other projects in "Project Explorer view" that would otherwise cause conflicts if left open (e.g. close app/.project if it was open) 2.3 open 'common' in the Project Explorer view I know support for hierarchical projects is planned for Eclipse 4.x, but in the meantime we're stuck with the flat module layout imposed by Eclipse 3.x and lower.
