Description

Gradle got some interesting features, like the daemon can be notified on file changes, tests can be launched from a separate Test launcher which can provide much friendlier test re-execution and other modules might query different Gradle models.

In order to be able to access those finctionality it would be good to be able to retrieve a ProjectConnection from the GradleProject's lookup.
