I don't mind either way. If we want to proceed, I'm OK with either of:
1. Accept the PR as-is and file a follow-up issue
2. Add the change proposed by @nlisker and list him as a co-contributor (in which case he can still review it).

Long term, as @johanvos pointed out, it might be better to get the IDE files out of the repo, but I'll leave that entirely up to the Eclipse users to decide. There is already an issue tracking this: [JDK-8223374](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8223374).
