Just to clarify: the only dependency we're allowing is
org.eclipse.core.runtime which requires J2SE 1.3 and the following
plug-ins/JARs:
* org.eclipse.osgi
* org.eclipse.equinox.common
* org.eclipse.core.jobs
* org.eclipse.equinox.registry
* org.eclipse.equinox.preferences
* org.eclipse.core.contenttype
* org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility.auth

There should be no problem running these in a headless application if they
are on the classpath, and we can bundle them with the headless ZIP if
someone opens a bug report (but please try it first to verify this is all
you need).

It's available now, but we still need to continue growing it to make it
usable by headless applications.  We don't currently have an internal need
for that so we're happy to see the Maven integration act as a driver and
looking forward to more bug reports.
