Hi,

Attached is a patch which makes the following changes to the eclipse:external-tools-21 goal:

1. Makes default action to run goal against project.xml in the current project.
2. Makes default to refresh project containing the selected resource
3. Removes code to add each entry to favorites list, because they fill up the list and makes user have to scroll to see the bottom of the external tools menu.

I think these would be much more intuitive and convenient defaults for the majority of the plugin users.

Thanks,
Chad
