We'd be VERY interested in having this feature in 3.2 - our user base is
~500 at the moment and we maintain Linux, Solaris and Windows versions
of Eclipse. We install Linux/Solaris in a shared RO location and about
to introduce a locked down Windows build (installed on user's box) which
only has a specified dir available as RW to the user - Eclipse would be
installed by a privilaged script and the location would be RO for the
user. Ability to default an install location for all plugins to a custom
dir outside the Eclipse installation would be VERY welcome.
Thanks
Bernard Cena
