Yes, insectivore works fine. I just adopted it when I saw the reply to
your answer. :-=)

This is possible since Eclipse 1.0:
use the -plugin parameter:
eclipse -data myworkspace -plugins /home/leberre/.plugin-path
with /home/leberre/.plugin-path
platformPath=file:/home-local/eclipse/plugins/
pluginDevelopmentPath=file:/home/leberre/eclipse/plugins/
the first path is the standard eclipse platform plugin path.
the second one the user plugins path.
Now nothing prevent your group to adopt eclipse :-=)
