Hm... this sounds like a potentially better solution, that the
maven-dependency-plugin (which as also got a reference to from
you...:-) ) that we're currently using to pull the binary bundles in
from a maven repository:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/
Two possible issues, though:
- the dependency plugin copy and copy-dependencies goals has an
overWriteIfNewer setting, while the eclipse:install-plugins only
has an overwrite flag, meaning "always overwrite"
- the dependency plugin has the copy-dependencies goal that can be
used to pull in bundles neccessary for the ones we're building
Maybe I'm better off staying with the dependencies plugin.

The eclipse:install-plugins goal has the projectBuilder parameter
which seems to imply that plugins can be selected to be installed as
jars or directories on an individual basis.
Doesn't give an actual howto to _how_ this can be accomplished
though. What it says is:
projectBuilder Used to retrieve the project metadata (POM)
associated with each plugin dependency, to help determine whether
that plugin should be installed as a jar, or expanded into a
directory.
I don't have a clue what to write in the POM to make bundles be
installed as directories, unfortunately...:-/
take a look at the source code - I think it examines the dependencies
POM for some <property/>
