not sure what you mean by virtual environment here ? the oc is supposed to be install on users local host.

I thought about the virtualized environment as provided by the Developer Platform. I guess right now you indeed need the oc binary locally, because you cannot afaiu drive the communication with the Openshift 3 instance purely via its REST API (due to the problems with finding/implementing a Java client providing the required capabilities). If this problem could be solved, it should be possible to do all "local" communication via REST avoiding the need for the _oc_ cli altogether. If the user in such a case still wants to use the _oc_ command line and has the virtualized environment of the Developer Platform available, it should be possible to eg ssh to a virtual machine in this environment which provides the _oc_ cli. Anyways, just a thought. I hope it is clearer now what I meant.

> it would be great to have a "Show in > OpenShift CLI" in openshift explorer and on projects that are known to be on openshift that would use local terminal (like: https://v.usetapes.com/ISfR95tJK8) but have `oc login --token=<tokenforlogin> --server=<serverurl>` executed at start.
> This would allow users to work with CLI whenever the UI does not have exactly the command needed by user.
> * This assumes users have oc in their path 
> * might need different commands based on what OS (windows vs *nix)
