Thanks very much for these ideas. After Asaf wrote, I Googled around to
figure out what he was referring to and found doc that enabled me both
to amend my /pom.xml/ and to understand why amending it worked (found
out about the Super POM), which it did and my project now looks the way
I want it to and also works.
My next question is also a simple one about the next logical step.
Having fixed my project's /pom.xml /to accept the simplified,
Eclipse-like subdirectory structure,*what can I do such that typing*
$ mvn archetype:generate
*
**to create my next project will result in a **/pom.xml /**and
subdirectory structure already fixed up this way?*
In other words, I think, I'm asking how to create my own archetype.
Eventually, I'm hoping also to do this for Eclipse Dynamic Web projects
(what I really do), that is, create an archetype that will set them up
just as Eclipse sets up this kind of project instead of how the
available archetypes do it.
I think armed with these answers, I'll be back into Maven and over the
annoyances that I originally experienced years ago prior to working on
teams that eschewed Maven in favor of just ant or ant and Ivy. I would
just stick with ant/Ivy, but I'm going to be working on a team that uses
Maven, so I have to get back into it.
Many thanks for your patience, guys!

In the Pom.xml under build element there are several elements allowing
you to change source directory and testSource directory.
Go wild :)

probably violates some sacred religious Maven principle, is alter
subdirectory structure to imitate a non-Maven Eclipse project.
Please see the illustration below.
Is it Maven that imposes the extra, traditional substructure or a
function of the archetype that can be modified (if only I knew how)?
Many thanks for comments.
~/dev/maven $tree
.
`--helloworld
+-- pom.xml
`--src
+--main
| `--java
| `--com
| `--fun
| `-- App.java
`--test
`--java
`--com

`-- test
