Actually, the Wiki and FAQ are probably lagging reality here. What's happened is that the docs you have seen are correct through Eclipse 2.1. However, in Eclipse 2.2, there has been an effort to remove the dependencies between JFace and the other JARs. Since I haven't moved to the 2.2 stream yet, I don't know what the new requirements are. You'll probably get a much faster answer on e.tools than here since most of us are really SWT people here, not JFace.
Good luck.
