I don't think fragments are your friend in this case :-)
You want a regular plug-in that ends up being configured as part of an
OS-specific feature. The plug-in contributes to regular extension points as
a regular citizen.

Excellent. This was the answer I was hoping to hear <g>
Veronika on SWT is your fragment friend. She has lots of experience.
If Andre is dong the Mac one does anybody in jdt-debug land have cycles to
fragmentize the j9 launcher?

I prefer 2) since the MacOS X launcher isn't finished yet, isn't
small, and will probably get some UI.
So should I start converting it into a fragment?
Anything special to consider?
