Eclipse has problem "failOnMissingWebXml" with fresh opened Project

[toschroe]

we've unpacked the zip
start Eclipse
Import Existing Maven Projects

and see the Error
"web.xml is missing and is set to true"
in pom.xml (Textedit mode) on line 7

a little Google search:
the problem is solved with adding the following plugin-sequence to pom.xml

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.2</version>
    <configuration>
        <failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Since Eclipse is from Vaadin the recommended platform and addressbook is a project for beginners, this issue is set.
