We always said JBoss Tools/Devstudio would react to emergency releases 
if IS needs it.
Thus saying a release is not planned then that is not a valid reason if 
it is the only one.

Can we not do a basic TP update without a big overhead ?

Please remember that even if this is put into the IS TP then it affects 
base devstudio and jbosstools too.

Thus some basic testing/verification would be relevant for 
jbosstools/devstudio no matter
if the update is put in base TP or in IS TP.
