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

             Summary: Allow to extend Central extensions catalog with "Beta" stuff
                 Key: JBIDE-16375
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16375
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: central, discovery
            Reporter: Mickael Istria
             Fix For: 4.2.0.Beta1


In order to make it easier for people to consume some "Beta" extensions from JBT or JBDS release (such as installing a Beta of JBT-IS on top of a JBT release), it would make sense to have Central allow users to select some catalogs in a UI entry such as "Include Experimental stuff" to show additional catalog entries.
Either this could be a single catalog with the experimental content being annotated, or it could be 2 (or more catalogs) which have different quality levels.
The Central UI will need to give feedback on the quality level for a given entry ("supported" or "experimental" or ...).
