       Body:
I'm not sure I see the value of this..  It seems like such a specific case..  And, there is always a problem when you branch a project..  Maven really doesn't have a concept of branched versions of the same project..  Pretty much you branch somethings, says commons-lang into HEAD and BRANCH..  then you would need to change the name to commons-lang-BRANCH and commons-lang (for HEAD)...  b/c the name of jar's doesn't have any branch info..   

I am inclined to close this as a non Eclipse issue, and suggest it be reopened as more of a Maven issue..   If someone feels strongly, please reopen this.

Description:
I'm working on a project in which the aritfact name does not match the eclipse project name. I've created patches to support a new project.xml dependency property called eclipse.dependency.name, which allows you to specify a custom project name for a dependency.

eg Before:

<dependency>
  <groupId>kizoom</groupId> 
  <artifactId>common</artifactId>
  <version>1</version>
  <properties>
    <eclipse.dependency>true</eclipse.dependency>
  </properties>
</dependency>

After:
<dependency>
  <groupId>kizoom</groupId> 
  <artifactId>common</artifactId>
  <version>1</version>
  <properties>
    <eclipse.dependency>true</eclipse.dependency>
    <eclipse.dependency.name>KizoomCommon</eclipse.dependency.name>
  </properties>
</dependency>

Not sure about the name eclipse.dependency.name, should this be eclipse.dependency.project.name or maybe eclipse.dependency.project?
