Description Paul Harmon

The org.eclipse.edt.compiler plugin currently has a dependency on jface and eclipse.ui. There is no good reason for this...

There are some class dependencies on these plugins in compiler, but I think they are mostly unused classes. One major thing to do is to get rid of the EGLBasePlugin from this project. I took a look at it, and it doesnt seem to contain anything that is needed for EDT. Some of the constants defined in it may need to be moved to the IDE plugin(s).

This plugin also has the constant for the vagenCompatOption (preference) and the aliasJSFHandlerNames (which was never even used in RBD!)

I saw many references in IDE to stuff that probably isnt needed in EDT. This may be a good opportunity to clean this up as well.

Brian said this should be deferred to 1.0 since it's just cleanup.

Removing myself as the owner since it's not going to be done in .8
