Using Maven as Eclipse class-path container

Hi,

I'd like to know if there is, or if there are any plans to create, an 
Eclipse plugin that cann add a Maven2 class-path container to a project, 
so there is a way to use the Maven artifact resolver (adding 
dependencies automatically to the Eclipse classpath) inside Eclipse. 
This would be especially useful for transitive depencies...
The idea for this stems from the Necessitas Ivy plugin for Eclipse:
http://kevin.oneill.id.au/2005/06/06/necessitas-jar-management-for-eclipse

Are there any informations about this topic? Maybe the soon-to-be 
released M2 Eclipse plugin 
(http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/BrowseProject.jspa?id=11093) can do this?

Thanks,
Michael Böckling

Correct, and more.

Sounds like a good idea. I think the eclipse plugin works only in the
opposite direction, generating .classpath etc files for eclipse to use.
A problem might be that eclipse doesn't have the concept of scopes for
its dependencies.
