Sorting of Folders and files in the Web Resources node in the Project Explorer [message #1034253]

The project explorer sorts the children of folders (at least in the web resources node) by name and mixes files and folders. the result looks like this:

webapp\web-inf\
a.xml
b (folder)
c.xml
d (folder)

is it possible to configure the project explorer not to do this?

this post recommends using the package explorer, but i WANT to use the project explorer because i like the "magic" folders for spring-beans or deployed resources. the package explorer does not have those.
