ignore dependencies in eclipse workspace
----------------------------------------

         Key: MNGECLIPSE-97
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-97
     Project: Maven 2.x Extension for Eclipse
        Type: Improvement

  Components: Dependency Resolver  
    Versions: 0.0.5    
 Environment: eclipse 3.1.2 on linux
    Reporter: Dan Allen
 Assigned to: Eugene Kuleshov 


When a maven project is setup in eclipse, the dependencies between modules are 
captured as eclipse project dependencies.  However, when m2eclipse gets into 
the mix, it tries to assign the dependency to the jar file that has been 
installed in the maven repository.  It makes much more sense for m2eclipse to 
get out of the way and let eclipse deal with the dependencies if it exists in 
the workspace.

This is simply a matter of implementing the following logic:

1. scan through dependency artifacts in the pom
2. if the dependency has the same groupId (maybe too bold of an assumption?)
  a. if so, look through all dependent eclipse projects
  b. find a maven project with the same artifactId and version
     i. if so, skip this dependency and move to the next
