Hi,
This is a question to the eclipse/rcp team whether there is a config.ini
editor planned. I think this would be a nice feature as editing the list
of plugins and their startup values is quite error-prone.
Greetings,
Wouter

Never mind my rambling, I just found out that you don't have to use
absolute paths and you can have multiple lines for bundle declarations,
which makes it much easier.
