I'm definitely neither the Maven nor the Eclipse expert, but let me give it a go:
If I understand correctly you are looking for a seamless integration between Eclipse and Maven. I read somewhere that Jason van Zyl is working on an Eclipse plugin (something like MevenIDE); I have no idea if what you are describing here is in the scope of that plugin. Also you might try to refresh the projects after having run the eclipse:eclipse command. If that doesn't work, try deleting your projects in Eclipse (make sure that you indicate to 'NOT delete your contents') and Import them again. But, in this case, maybe restarting Eclipse is an easier way out! On the other hand, I don't think that dependencies of a project are changed regularly. Normally you set those up in the beginning of a project and maybe in the future you adapt them for newer versions of the libraries. In this light, I consider the need for restarting Eclipse not that big an issue.

I'm using maven 2 and eclipse 3.1.1. Here is what I am doing and it works but it is tedious: (1) I go to the repository browser and find the artifacts I want. (2) I manually add the groupIds and artifactIds to the pom.xml (3) I exit eclipse (4) I run "mvn package" (5) I run "mvn eclipse:eclipse" (6) I start up eclipse again and observe the new artifacts in package explorer. Is there an easier way? It seems to me that I should be able to drag and drop from the repository browser to the pom.xml and the package explorer should automatically download the new artifacts. Do I really have to restart eclipse all the time?
