Description Jose M. Arnesto CLA 2021-02-28 10:33:28 EST 
The location of the toolchain.xml files (user and global scopes) should be able to be set from the UI. The current "User Settings" preferences page could be the right place for it.

Then, the -gt and/or -t options would be used when invoking Maven so that the values set in the UI were passed to Maven.

Implementing this functionality would also fix this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=521280
