Our project Gradle support code to mangle standard Eclipse files, based on
an older version of Gradle.  Being on a older version of Gradle and now
upgrading to the newest Gradle it is great to see all the new configuration
capabilities.  What I am trying to understand is where to hook into Eclipse
generation to create files for Eclipse plugins that aren't supported by
Gradle or a Gradle plugin yet.

Before I was using a doLast on the eclipse task but, that doesn't work
anymore in version 1.0.7.  I moved all these to an eclipseClasspath.doLast.
 I wasn't crazy about this because my files really don't have anything to
do with the classpath setup in Eclipse.  Any thoughts on a better approach?
I would like a place that would hook in right after Gradle is done with the
entire Eclipse generation build phase. What is the intended best practices?
 I know plugins is one way but, I am looking for an approach for teams that
doesn't necessarily require building a plugin.  For me that was a big plus
over Maven and I really hope that will continue to be true with Gradle.

Thanks,
Jas
