Note: this bug is not about Eclipse, not Mylyn, but I think that because I choose Mylyn as the product with which to specify the bug it infers the bug peratins to Mylyn?

The constructor generated with "Generate Constructor using fields..." always includes super();
In this way the default constructor in the same class is omitted. If such a constructor exists, the generated code should include "this();" rather then "super();"

Moving to JDT which contributes the code generation features.
