Are these eclipse plugins similar to mozilla plugins in that the user
has to take an additional step after the FreeBSD package is added, or if
the package is on the system then it's available to all the users
immediately? If the latter, then I can understand why having FreeBSD
packages of them would be valuable. If they are similar to mozilla
plugins then I'm curious what the value-add is.
