FWIW, another workaround it to add .project, .classpath files and .settings folder to source control. That should keep the plug-ins configured most of the time. Although, a hook during M2E project import for additional processors might be a nice extension. This could then search the marketplace for additional integrations (like the text editor extension which searches marketplace for unknown files).
