I ended up doing exactly this: I created a new maven module project,
called modeler.core.test in the top level maven project (as created from
tycho-eclipse-plugin-archetype) using maven-archetype-quickstart

Then I deleted the production source directory and all of its contents,
made a package that matched the package in the modeler.core project, and
was able to TDD up a class.

So now it works as I would like it to in m2e in eclipse.

Command line maven builds almost works (there is a test failure right
now, but I think that has a different reason).

The interesting bit will be to see if this affects the tycho-built
plugin that is to be the eventual result of this project.

Here's the code I'm working on:
