I would like to create an m2eclipse project configurator[1] that automatically configures the eclipse project with PMD based on the Maven pom pmd configuration.  I was able to do this with the 3.2.4 release since my eclipse plugin could depend on the ui & core pmd eclipse plugins.  As of the recent 3.2.5 release of pmd-eclipse, I can no longer reference any classes out of the plugin as they are all hidden within the bundle.  Could the build process be changed so that the pmd-plugin.jar file is accessible and I can create a new eclipse plugin that can depend on it?
