Enhanchement : Add a cleanup goal to launch Clean Up with a specific EclipseCleanUpRules in addition of format about formatter-maven-plugin HOT 7 CLOSED

Clean Ups have not been externalised like the formatter. Best you could do, is execute Eclipse in Headless mode, e.g. using TEA.

Would this address some of the trailing whitespace problems described in #23 ?

Yes cleanup action would fix trailing space. Same applies on eclipse mars

I'm interested in this as well. Any clues where to start in eclipse code?

Not too familiar with the Eclipse codebase, but it seems kinda scattered. Might be best to check in with the Eclipse community to see where the best place to start would be. Hopefully, the code for cleanup is modular enough to be reused here, but it might be a long shot.

Damn this would be so handy

FWIW, the whitespace removal is no longer necessary from this, since that feature was added natively without the use of Clean Up actions.
