Not sure...

Maybe, I know them pretty well (having done extensive modifications to them) , but I am not sure I will have the free time :'(

I did not implemented those, I have not experience in that kind of programming (that is why I like the idea of using Xtext: that work is already being done by someone else with interest in creating the ultimate code generation tool)

If I had implemented them, or had the level of knowledge required, I would try... :'(. But that is precisely the point, nobody seems to care-about/have-spare-time for improving support for Freemarker in Eclipse: Why not leave that job to a team of people that actually have the creation of such a tool as their main goal?
