Maven and the Exadel Eclipse plugin

I'm using Maven for my builds (lika a lot of us). In Eclipse I use the m2eclipse plugin to import maven projects into Eclipse. However, when I use the combination of m2eclipse and Exadel's Maven plugin, it seems like Exadel's plugin stops to function - I no longer get any visual feedback concerning compile errors in my javafx source.

Right now, the only way to get things to work is to import all maven projects BUT the javafx parts into Eclipse. I then create Eclipse projects for my javafx projects via "maven eclipse:eclipse" and then import those projects (not as maven projects) into the Eclipse workspace. I then manually enable javafx support via the project properties and add the following line to the ".classpath" file:

This seems to work but then my javafx projects are of course not really "mavenised" in Eclipse.

Since Maven and m2eclipse is a very common combination I would like for the Exadel Eclipse plugin to support this in order to have an efficient programming environment.
