    Description

      If a required parameter is missing one gets the following error:

      The parameters 'repositories' for goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-eclipse-plugin:5.0.0-SNAPSHOT:eclipse-run are missing or invalid

      This is very bad from user-experience point of view, there should be no doubt for the user if it is required (and missing) or invalid (present but has wrong value). If it is invalid it should even mention why (e.g. incompatible types).
