AFAIK Eclipse can do zip/jar or uncopressed directory. Therefore the 
plugin would have to uncompress tar.gz/tar.bz2 (the latter should be 
even smaller!) after downloading, or optionaly recompress it as zip to 
conserve disk space.

For an artifact "ID-version.ext", the patch I suggest just looks for a 
file in same artifact groupe named "ID-version-src.ext". Perhaps I 
should make it "fixed extension".

I will look at the option you suggest : look for a tar.bz2 and build 
from it a sources jar for easier usage in eclipse (and others IDE ?). It 
may add some dependencies to maven core to support bz2 format.
