      JBoss Tools 3.1.0.GA adds a library to Eclipse called "J2EE 5.0 libraries (JBoss Tools)". The name of this library suggests it's the full Java EE 5 API, however upon inspection it appears to be a subset:

      javax.annotation
      javax.ejb
      javax.enterprise.deploy
      javax.jms
      javax.persistence
      javax.resource
      javax.security.jacc
      javax.servlet
      javax.transaction
      javax.xml

      Among others, javax.faces and javax.mail are missing.

      Additionally, the name of the library is not consistent. In project -> properties -> Java Build Path -> Add Library... it's called "JEE 5.0 libraries", but after adding it to a project it's referred to as "J2EE 5.0 libraries (JBoss Tools)". I think "Java EE 5 libraries" would be the best name as both "JEE 5.0" and "J2EE 5.0" are not official terms.
