When using the "Check out as Maven project" option within Subclipse,
there is a checkbox labeled "Separate projects for modules." By default,
it's checked. In my experience, Eclipse behaves better when this
checkbox is unchecked. Why is this the default? Here are the issues I
have with m2eclipse when Separate projects for modules is checked (and
I'm working with a multi-module project (nested layout)):
* Source trees show up twice in Package Explorer.
* Opening a .java file from one tree yields different behavior than
opening the source file from the other tree. Example: code completion is
disabled in one and works perfectly in the other.
* Synchronization issues in Subclipse.
All of these go away (well, the source trees are still shown twice but
they're empty) when "Separate projects for modules" is unchecked!
