working as designed -
We had the same problem and created our own multi-project eclipse generator plugin.

Are there any plans from the maven2 gurus to extend this functionality to the 'org.apache.maven.plugins' domain?

Weird shit is happening here.

We have a multiple modules project, which looks like this:

Top project

            |- project-tier

                        |- business tier

                        |- integration tier

                        |- presentation-tier

                                   |- prg 1

                                   |- prg 2

The presentation tier has business tier and integration tier as dependencies.  
They are connected with each other through the pom-file.  (The same goes for 
business and integration).  Each project was generated by Maven.

We've created this setup and until now, we haven't had any problems with that.  
But now I ran into something very annoying.  Since this is a multiple module 
project, it's easy to run the mvn-commands from the top-folder.  So if you run 
mvn eclipse:clean or mvn eclipse:eclipse, all the necessary project files are 
created by Maven.  So far, so good.  But now, if I run these commands from the 
top-folder, the jar-files for business and integration aren't added to the 
build path in Eclipse for prg1 and prg2.  This is a problem, because if you run 
them inside Eclipse on Tomcat (they're Struts applications), you get a 404 
because the jar-files for business and integration aren't published.  If I run 
package or install, those dependencies are added to the war-file.

When I run the mvn eclipse:clean and mvn eclipse:eclipse commands in the prg1 
or prg2 folder, the jars for business and integration are added to the build 
path and I can publish it without any problem.

Can anybody explain to me why this doesn't work from the top-folder? Working with multiple modules is nice because you can run the commands once for each project underneath it, but with this problem that advantage disappears.
