We have a EAR 1.3->1.4 migration procedure that 
1)converts the application.xml from 1.3 to 1.4 
2)changes the facet version from 1.3 -> to 1.4. 
The problem is after these changes org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.componentcore.util.EARArtifactEdit.getEARArtifactEditForRead(project).getApplication().getVersion() retruns null. Prior to Helios it returned 1.4.

For manual reproduction I assume the following steps has to be done:
1)Create an EAR 1.3 project - the DD node in the tree shows 1.3 version
2)change the appliication.xml - from 1.3 to 1.4 version - i.e replace: 

<!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application 1.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/application_1_3.dtd">
<application id="Application_ID">

with:

<application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="1.4" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/application_1_4.xsd">

3)In helios the DD node is still 1.3. 
Prior to Helios - the DD node becomes 1.4
