I like the new ability to paste Java code into the package explorer and have a Java project created for it. It would be even nicer if this was extensible to allow similiar behaviour for other content types, such as AspectJ code to create an AspectJ project.

I had a quick look in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.refactoring.reorg.PasteAction and it seems there is a defined list of pasters set in createEnabledPasters(), so I would have thought this could be extended to add any pasters contributed via an extension point to the end of this list of pasters.
