Hi Stefan,

I didn't really archive anything, but I was surprised to see that if you 
tell your Eclipse Ant-Editor "hey, I am using a modified version of 
Ant!", it seems to take a look at the class files and tries to do some 
intellisense.

This way I managed to get intellisense for the webtest and steps tags. 
In addition the editor seems to know about all the steps, but doesn't 
know where they are nested.

So I think that the main problem is how the steps are derived from the 
normal ant step class - it seems that the editor can't find them in the 
class files... :-(

So take a look at the ant editor configuration, play around with it and 
tell us if you find something more :-)

Cheers,
Ralf
