This seems like it might be a good discussion topic for an IDE working group.

I guess my main question is why this plug-in and not the other 20 or so that would make Eclipse Packages better. How did these guys jump to the head of the line?

We should take a broader look at the kind of features we'd like the packages to exhibit and solve this in the large.

Subject: [epp-dev] Package maintainers: I need you to weigh in on this discussion.

There is a proposal in play to add Workspace Mechanic to the packages. Current discussion suggests that we should add it to all packages, including yours.

I need all package maintainers to weigh in. A "+1 on behalf of..." will do. If you have reservations, please make them known. I assume that "I have no idea what Workspace Mechanic does" is on at least some of your minds. It would be good if somebody steps up to test that this inclusion will work before we go to the effort of pushing it through the IP process.
