Hi Werner, Hi Ryan,
the effort in the design and the implementation of the Java EE 8 technologies need an easy way to be brought to the users.
Often it is the IDE, that helps newcomers to draw up a new application by using comfortable tools.
On the job I am using Maven just like you, but I have also dived into the Eclipse Functionality for Java EE quite deep,
using and explaining each wizard in detail and I must repeat my indication, that some significant locations are outdated
and the users will repetitively get to deprecated outcomes. The changes that have to be done might be in feasable extent.
But it would be good to know, if the WTP-team working on this project has a road map, that could be published officially.
@Mike: Do you know, if the WTP-team has a release date for a Java EE 8 compliant WTP-Plugin?
Best Regards,
Alex

Rudy,
Auto-complete and similar features also work if all dependencies can be resolved with Maven/M2E/M2WTP, but WTP itself will have to support either Java EE 8 soon or decide to skip it and immediately go EE4J/JakartaEE.
The "WYSIWYG" editors for HTML, JSP, JSF and other aspects of Java EE (some extensions like JBoss Tools also add extra CDI/Weld support) have to work with new features of Java EE 8 or the next version.
