but thats my point - that those dependencies should be added to a "SOA" JBT target platform sooner rather than later to avoid annoying surprises.

Well its the soa tools that keeps doing different than all the other plugins so i'm just trying to figure out
what are the missing pieces ;)

And now is the time for code modifications in JBoss Tools land.

If it is with respect to code standards and reformatting - then sure - that can be challenging but at least our current jboss tools module structure allows to isolate us from that
and apply module specific styles if necessary/needed.

hmm - not sure that works crossplatform..maybe Juno have fixed those issues with their more "proper" SWT shell handling now -  worth looking into.
Opened https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12388

but It doesn't block initialization does it  ? should just block UI input, background jobs etc. is still run.

btw. would be good if switchyard eventually could have the optional dependency to the usage plugin too so we get ping-backs for your installations too :)
