                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2086
             Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
          Issue Type: Sub-task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
            Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen
             Fix For: 5.x, 6.x


When third party plugins contribute a welcome screen they are currently not shown.

I think it would have value that we provide a way to have users get access to this content similar to what Eclipse EPP packages does.

Is it possible to simply add a "More Welcome content..." button in case of more welcome screens being available and switch to a page that has a grid layout of the contributed welcome screen elements ?

Or maybe add a scrollable panel at the bottom of the welcome screen showing the contribute elements "sliding by ?"
