XML and Maven properties [message #903271]

Hey everybody,
I am wondering about a cosmetic thing. I have an XML file - a web.xml - which is edited by maven depending on a build-profile. So far, I have this (shortened) invalid xml file:

<web-app>
${webxml.myconfig}
</web-app>

which will be rendered by maven during the build cycle. How can I tell Eclipse to ignore this one property. Besides I really like getting hints about mistakes in my XMLs, even in the web.xml which is actually significantly longer.

Or even better: how can I wrap such a maven-specific command to be valid XML?
Thank you for help, Rafael

PS: This is a repost. I originally asked this question in the XML forum but was referred to rather ask this question here.

You should be able to exclude the file from XML Validation as shown on http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/releases/3.0.0/newandnoteworthy/common.php . Although it may become valid once Maven is done populating its contents, in this form it is invalid.
