Description Eike Stepper CLA 2011-02-03 12:42:11 EST
A major issue for workspace relocations seems to be that linking IFolders and IProjects from non-default locations into the workspace is always done with absolute URIs.

Worse, in the case of IProjects this happens somewhere in .metadata where I'd be unable to find or fix it after moving the workspace.
