Here's the closes bug report I found:

I added my piece of mind to the issue report.
I think that you are referring to the wrong bug.
The user wanted to change the web content folder in the existing
web project using a project property.
That's really all I could find. Do you think we should just create a
new issue?
Yes.

I thought you wanted to configure a default web content folder for
new projects.
Right, that's what I mean.
BTW, if m2eclipse imports an existing web project, it will set the
web content folder according to maven settings. If you don't set
warSourceDirectory to maven-war-plugin, the web content folder
will be /src/main/webapp (the maven default web folder).
Yep. But I figure without Maven 2, it should still offer a way to
configure the location, as we have already mentioned elsewhere in the
discussion.
Within the Seam Web Project wizard, we could save the WTP's web content
folder preference that would be the default preference for new dynamic
web projects, including Seam. That would be only one or two lines of
code that we could remove when WTP fixes their issue.
