sourceTemplateFeature and sourceTemplateFragment still needed?

Some of our features still have sourceTemplateFragment and sourceTemplateFeature folder included. Are these still used / necessary?

New features generated by the PDE wizard do not have these folders.

I have no idea, never seen or used that folders...

Ok, this seems to confirm that Tycho does not need it. I will try to remove these folders early 4.26 (unless someone else remembers what they are used for) and see if something breaks.

I just searched my PDE workspace for those terms and get a hit in org.eclipse.pde.internal.build.builder.SourceGenerator.

Looks like you can define some sort of feature/fragment template content with that. Don't know if this is still working or useful.
