Currently m2e wraps source into new artifacts having performance and space implications and can be confusing because users expect the file to be on a different location.

Due to the recent changes in PDE this is no longer required an we can remove this workaround.

See eclipse-pde/eclipse.pde#425

This will require a new PDE release ...

I think that's a good change, and think that is actually to not have sources as bundles since they are not meant to be installed in a OSGi Runtime. And better performance and less code is also beneficial.

However I wonder if it will then still work to reference the sources-(not bundles any-more) in a Feature? In general I would recommend to not include sources in a Feature, but there might be cases where it is needed. And since it used to be possible I think there are people that do it.

It might work to add a corresponding element manually in the text of the source-tab of the Feature-Editor. But that will then show warnings in the IDE. Tycho probably can still handle this since it is not changed.
That is probably a more general issue in PDE?

If thats important to anyone this needs to be fixed at PDE, the target platform still promotes this as a TargetBundle so PDE has all it needs to know to use this, that is the part here:

fInfo.setSymbolicName(sourceTarget.getSymbolicName() + ".source");
fInfo.setVersion(sourceTarget.getVersion());
