             Summary: Identify which installed IUs are from Early Access vs. supported/tested versions
                 Key: JBIDE-17808
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17808
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Nick Boldt


[~maxandersen] brought up a good point on a call today:

we have no way from within JBDS of identifying which installed IUs were installed from Early Access vs. those what were installed from Central or another "supported" location.

Thus we need some sort of UI to list installed IUs that are "Early Access".

This could be... (brainstorming now):

* a text file with the list of things installed from Early Access (features and plugins)
* a set of asterisks added to the Help > About dialogs when browsing for installed features / plugins
* a way to filter the plugin view (Help > About) to show only EA content (or exclude it)
* ... ?
