Hi,

I am user of Intellij IDEA now but before when I was an Eclipse user I have
used embedded Jetty. See Start.java in Wicket quickstart application.
If you want to use Tomcat as you described I think you need
http://www.eclipse.org/m2e-wtp/. This project integrates Eclipse's Web
Tools with Maven based web projects.

Give a try to embedded Jetty. Is is much faster to develop with it and I
didn't have any major problems using Jetty for development and Tomcat for
production.
