> The extension point provided in upstream WTP for declaring server profilers is called org.eclipse.jst.server.core.serverProfilers.
> The primary function of the implementation class org.eclipse.jst.server.core.ServerProfilerDelegate is adding arguments to launches in order to enable the proper agent. 
> If used with other profilers, arguments may need to be appended to the launch in order to enable the profiling. 
> If used via JVM Monitor, though, no real arguments are required, as JVM Monitor can install its agent directly without any changes on the part of the launch. 
> However, if we assume that JBIDE-17313 is solved and we can detect the duplicates, we could prevent the agent from being installed. We would be preventing the auto-detector from being added to the view. On our server startup, then, and only when profiling is enabled, we would connect the underlying jvmmonitor's agent and allow profiling. 
> This could be accomplished via a custom attribute on the launch configuration which could be flipped by the user via a radio / check button to enable or disable the profiler.
