Because eclipse is a real pain when you have to regenerate things
and (pull the rug out from underneath it).
It's incremental compiler gets well confused and trying to make it do
a full rebuild doesn't always fix it (it caches stuff it shouldn't - even across reboots).

A couple of weeks ago, I ended up doing a full recreate of my MC project
because eclipse decided it couldn't find java.lang.Object and I couldn't
find a way to fix it. ;-)

This issue isn't so bad with the small MC codebase, 
but with the JBossAS code tree, I can loose literally hours when it decides
it isn't going to play nice with an svn update. :-(
