[hibernate-dev] Eclipse-specific execution filters in POMs

[Brett Meyer]

I know a lot of you don't use Eclipse, but...

Its Maven plugin (M2E) does not have connectors for several of Hibernate 3.3's lifecycle mappings.  The only way to get the IDE to ignore them is to add the following (as an example).  What are your opinions of having IDE-specific areas, like this, in the parent POM?
