Is this possible with features to replace existed class in plugin?
For example I have small patch to exclude Swing/AWT and some other classes
from code completion. But it changes existed classes from JDT Core/UI. If
I start runtime workbench, feature replaces JDT classes, but when I start
separate Eclipse - no. I think that reason is in order of plugin loading
for runtime workbench, so this is just bug that it works.
So, is there any good way do replace class? Only way I know is to change
plugin.xml and add my jar before original jar's. Does not looks as good way...

You mean, you replaced a few classes in a given plugin, wrote a feature,
installed the feature, restart Eclipse, and the new feature is not used?
Did you check Help > About > Configuration Details to see what
version of your feature is loaded?

So, I create feature where I place these classes and change them.
When I start Runtime workbench, I see that classes are changed, they
work different than standard ones, so this is OK.
When I start separate Eclipse (with feature, and feature is loaded) - I see
that classes remain unchanged.

A patch is not actually modifying existing features/plugins, but installs
newer patched versions. Patches are only needed when you want to update an
included feature that is not a root feature, but this may not always work,
depending on the update policy.
At worst, create a new feature (with a new feature id) that ships a newer
version of the plugin you want to change and install it. The platform will,
at runtime, pick the higher version.
