I don't really agree here. I think it's pretty much on a project level. I
have different projects in my workspace that has different formatting
requirements. And in my project, we have the exported xml-file version
controlled. I defenetly think it would be great if the maven-eclipse-plugin
could automatically set (if it can't already). Like it can with checkstyle.

To me, that's what the maven-eclipse-plugin is about, configuring eclipse in
every way needed for the project.
Is that an incorrect assumption?

Code formatting tends to be a workspace level thing rather than a per
project setting.

So you are probably better off doing this manually, since its a once off
task.

As others have pointed out, if it is a per-project file (e.g. like a
checkstyle configuration file) then you can use the
                                       <configuration>
                                               <additionalConfig>
                                                       <file>
section to specify the files contents.
