Sure.

I think it's fine the way it is.  I've had to add additional repositories, but I suspect those will get merged into JBT target platform at some point (specifically, BPMN2 editor and some of its dependencies).

A good idea, but it may be a tough task requiring a lot of code modifications to get conformance.

Is it possible to simply change the modality?  I think part of the problem is that this blocks the entire application (e.g. jdt initialization).
