I agree with the direction you're suggesting here, but it's probably going to be much more than we can bite off for this next release. 

My thoughts as well.

I think we'd also have to use Eclipse links to share models across projects so that changes may be kept in sync. 

Do you have a link with info about eclipse links?  All I could find was the links that enable you to have your plug-ins outside of your install dir.

Regarding just preview, I think starting out we need to keep things as easy for the user as possible and add more advanced functionality only when asked for it.  That said, it seems like the simplest, easiest user experience would entail using Ramesh's API additions and a single Teiid instance having workspace-wide scope regarding preview so the user doesn't ever have to worry about it.  Assuming a Teiid is bundled and configured with the tooling, we would automatically make that the preview instance, avoiding even the necessity of any first-time setup by the user.
