Name template drop down list

Hi!

Is it possible to include [groupId].[artifactId] in the list of name
template defaults in the drop down list?

I found this to be the best solution, as the version number changes
after a release and it's tricky to rename projects in Eclipse.

The reason for this is that we have many nested modules that are
typically grouped by their groupID, so it means I can almost replicate
the hierarchy of "sub-projects" that I can then group in one working
set "master project".

(See http://soiland-reyes.com/stian/scrap/subprojects.png for example)


So for this I wonder why [groupId].[artifactId] is not in the list of
"Name templates" when creating/importing new projects.

  I've added this to the code in trunk. It should be available in the
next dev build.
  For the future, in order to track where change been originated from,
it would be great if you submit enhancement requests to jira, at
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE

  On a side note, groupId is usually quite redundant if you named
modules in an unique way. For example, here is how Maven project
hierarchy is imported into Eclipse using simple [artifactId] template:

  maven
  maven-compat
  maven-core
  maven-distribution
  maven-embedder
  etc...

  regards,
  Eugene

yeah, but then we would end up with something like
taverna-t2-activities-wsdl-translator-ui-integration-tests as an
artifactID, and that doesn't sound very well either.. ;-)
