+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #252800 +++

Projects must use jar'ed plug-ins (with unpack=false) unless authorized by the
planning council for technical reasons. Nested jars should be avoided if
possible since it creates problems for projects that has dependencies to such
plug-ins. The OSGi runtime is fine with it but the compiler is not able to
handle classpaths that contain nested jars. In case only one nested jar exists,
it is often better to expand the contents of that jar into the root folder
(i.e. unnest the jar). If a plug-in contains large files that are frequently
used (opened and closed), a jar'ed plug-in might degrade performance
significantly since the file must be decompressed each time it is opened.
