WTP uses a standard Eclipse preference to set the default web content folder. However, there isn't any UI to change the preference. If the user changes it, WTP won't save a new value.
We can change the preference either by adding a preference page or by saving the value when the user has finished the Seam Web Project wizard.

It would be incredibly helpful to have a preference page for this setting. Seriously helpful. And a nice value add for JBoss Tools.
 
As to JBDS, we can change the default value when starting a new workspace. This can also be done in JBoss Tools, but would break Eclipse fair play rule.

I don't understand why this was never a preference in Eclipse already. It seems to me Eclipse is being too lame to be treated fairly in this case. You can change just about ever other aspect of a project. Maybe I should voice my concern on an issue report. Is there an open issue in Eclipse to control this setting?
