[m2e-users] Best way to have one project looking at a subset of another project

I have one m2e project checked out from svn which is an aggregator project.  It is several layers deep.  Several layers down there are some projects with src/main/java trees.  I need to have the top-level aggregator project, but I also need to be able to debug code from the lower-level directories.  The top-level project doesn't know it has Java source, so I can't effectively set breakpoints or do "Open Type".

While I have this top-level aggregator project, can I create additional projects that are just pointing at segments of that big project, so they both have the same files, but the lower-level one knows it's a Java project, so I can set breakpoints and "Open Type"?

It seems like I can just create a new project from an existing location, being within the first project.

Will that work, or will that cause me other problems?
