Description Remy Suen CLA 2011-09-22 11:16:43 EDT 
Eclipse may be unzipped in folders where the user does not have rights (like Windows' "Program Files") folder. How will the user edit their CSS files then?
Comment 1 Eric Moffatt CLA 2011-09-22 20:52:59 EDT 
Bogdan, something to consider for CSS editing...
Comment 2 Andrey Loskutov CLA 2012-04-17 17:39:44 EDT 
Please consider this as a "must have", not an optional feature.
The bug describes exactly the use case for our Eclipse based product, deployed under RHEL 5 as rpm and managed by the "root" accounts only.

Edited CSS files are stored in the user HOME directory, although there's still work to do:
