-------------------------------------------------------------

I have updated my system from the older kernel to this:

{code}Linux thunk 3.11.4-101.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Oct 10 14:05:32 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux{code}

Still works fine, as explained above, in Eclipse JEE SR1 with org.jboss.tools.central_1.2.2.Beta1-v20131025-1922-B102.jar installed.

However, I can reproduce the unhandled loop exception in JBDS 7.1.0.Beta1-v20131026-0928-B470. 

If I then update JBDS to 7.1.0.Beta1-v20131031-0912-B483 from [1], which includes these central plugins:

{code}
org.jboss.tools.central_1.2.2.Beta1-v20131025-1922-B102.jar
com.jboss.jbds.central_7.1.0.Beta1-v20131031-0912-B483.jar
{code}

I can install successfully, but ONLY if I drag into the editor itself, *not into its edges*. 

If I drag anywhere else, I get Unhandled event loop exception (see below for green areas that work and red areas that do not). Everything outside the Central editor (such as the main icon/coolbar at the top of the UI, the Outline view, or the Error Log view) works fine when I drag this URL [2] from Firefox 24.0 into it. 

With an earlier JBDS build, I think other views failed to hear the events too. (Not sure.)

> usecase is that you can have a link to a connector, such as JBDS-IS could be installed by drag'n'drop to jboss tools or jbds.
> Similar to eclipse marketplace for marketplace urls something like:
> * https://devstudio.jboss.com/central/install?connector=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e or 
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/central/install?CID=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e
> would install the two connectors named "com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel" and "org.eclipse.m2e"
> This would allow drag'n'drop install from html docs.
> Consider also supporting this from any clipboard object (eg., dragged from an Acrobat Reader PDF or Microsoft Office doc). Would need to ensure we do lots of platform testing.
