There's a similar request open at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=412213
Please, state your requirements over there, so we make sure to cover a
wider range of use cases when a proper solution can be implemented. Chances
are it'll require some breaking changes in m2e-wtp, requiring a bump to
version 2.0.

It's preferable we continue this discussion over at [email protected]

As of today, your only alternative is to fork the interesting classes to
match the required behavior.

FYI, I'll basically be away from anything programming stuff related till
september 1st
