Talking to Curtis, I realized that I left out some of the motivation as 
to why we are doing the proposed changes.

Basically, the main motivation for these improvements is a growing need 
for Ericsson, Airbus and the Polarsys community in general to more 
easily create custom IDEs. Therefore the main goal is simplification to 
make it more accessible.
All the improvements fall under this categorization and will be 
generally applicable to everyone, even people building RCP applications, 
since they are all about reducing the need for creating p2.inf files or 
googling to find the magic formula.
