Ok, please support my request here in the subclipse user list:

Ok, I just tried. It doesn't override existing eclipse files,
instead it modifies them as needed. For example, it could reorder
the builders in the .project file.

One thing I noticed, though. When using a naming template
(<artifactId-TRUNK> for example),
it writes the resulting project names into the .project files, e.g.
"myartifact-TRUNK".

I would suggest the following behaviour:
-> use the pom project name for the .project project name if possible
-> use the naming template only for naming the projects in the workspace

This would be consistent with the subclipse checkout action:
When checking out a single project from SVN you can give it another name,
but
this name is not written to the .project file, instead it's only used as
project name
in the workspace (and Eclipse views like Project Explorer).

Does this make sense?

Thanks,
Holger
