Great, thanks Josh. Just to understand what this consists of -- when I go
to the New Project dialog and I choose "Java with Maven" and then "Web
Application" and click Next, and Next again, there is a "Java EE Version"
drop-down, which now has "Java EE 7 Web", "Java EE 6 Web", and "Java EE 5".

Does your PR add new content to that drop-down? That's my assumption,
please just confirm/deny that.

Thanks,

Gj
