That's the approach we're taking in our initial product, too--use the launch configuration to house target/connection information. However, it becomes limiting pretty quickly. Imagine the user having ten projects that he uses with a single target device. He makes a target related change (which is fairly common) and is now faced with changing ten launch configurations. You throw in multi-core, and the situation is even more complex and fragile. That's why RSE is attractive to use. In some ways, it will be overkill for even our intended use, but in this case we think more is better than less.

I'm just concerned that RSE would be overkill for what I'm trying to
accomplish. From what I can see so far, a simple launch config with an
extensiblity mechanism to configure startup commands for gdb would be
enough. But then I'm a keep it simple kind of guy :).

We hope that RSE (Remote System Explorer) will eventually fill that
role, and have already started some prototyping towards that end. We
hope to be active participants in its development starting in a month
or two. I believe others in the dsdp group are looking at RSE in the same
way.
