It sounded interesting until it states the app will have limited host 
processes, network and filesystem access.

Won't that make the IDE of very little use if I can't easily use my 
existing projects, debug my java vm's nor access the network ?

And beyond that what does this feature provide Eclipse ? will it be 
easier to install ? run on more distributions without having different 
SWT bugs dependent on the host OS or ?
