Developing a FileSystem Extension [message #830986]

I'm trying to develop a FileSystem extension for a file system that requires credentials to log into. This FileSystem will contain Projects. I'm worried that when Eclipse first starts, before the user has had a chance to log into the FileSystem, the Projects will attempt to open. This will fail because they won't have access to .project file because they haven't logged in yet. I haven't gotten far enough that it is a problem, but I'm worried this will be a fundamental problem with my design.

The general problem I'm trying to solve is to attach Eclipse to a web service that provides an enterprise wide file store. Maybe extending FileSystem isn't the right way to go, but it seemed like the right approach.

Thoughts? Has anyone tried to develop an extension that enables storing Projects on a file system that requires credentials?
