Allow eclipse source to be specified at the dependency level
------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1605
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1605
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: New Feature
  Components: maven-eclipse-plugin  
    Versions: 2.0    
    Reporter: Barry Kaplan


Many (most?) projects do not have sources uploaded. And in any case, most 
projects only need a small subset of the sources. Source downloading, even 
(especially?) for sources that don't exist, is very time consuming.

Therefore, it would be nice to specify this eclipse plugin specific option as 
the dependency level. Maybe something like:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>backport-util-concurrent</groupId>
        <artifactId>backport-util-concurrent</artifactId>
        <version>2.0_01_pd</version>
        <scope>runtime</scope>
        <properties>
            <property name="eclipse.downloadSources" value="true"/>
        </properties>
    </dependency>


(For this to be general, it would of course require a much different model than 
the simple plugin-level property injection. )
