Max Bowsher commented on MECLIPSE-227:
--------------------------------------

Personally, I find the fact that it does not create a .project file to be an advantage. It means that I can easily import a multiproject tree into Eclipse just by pointing it at the root directory and letting it discover all the .project files. If there was a .project in the packaging=pom directories, it would not recurse into them.

> currently it does nothing. this is especially annoying if using parent poms with other poms in subdirectories, see also description on http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-ide-eclipse.html.
