JDT core should register the Java related file types with core so that they are 
properly released either as text or binary. This should be done in CORE since 
it also has to work headless. Doing so requires adding a pre-req to the team 
plugin org.eclipse.team.core. However, this is OK since conceptually the team 
plugin is part of the platform CORE.

The following file types should be registered:
.java  text
.class binary
.classpath text
.jar binary
.properties text
???

The registration is done in XML:
<extension point="org.eclipse.team.core.fileTypes">
  <fileTypes extension="txt" type="text"/>
  <fileTypes extension="java" type="text"/>
  <fileTypes extension="properties" type="text"/>
  <fileTypes extension="xml" type="text"/>
  <fileTypes extension="html" type="text"/>
  <fileTypes extension="jpg" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="gif" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="ico" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="bmp" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="tif" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="doc" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="xls" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="ppt" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="zip" type="binary"/>
  <fileTypes extension="exe" type="binary"/>
</extension>
