I saw this bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=207704
which mentions decoupling the compare functionality from the IDE to be
used in RCP application. The bug goes in a different direction
(decoupling the ui from the core), so I though I should post here first.
Is it feasible to make compare usable in RCP applications and is there
any interest? Are there better alternatives? Should I make a separate
enhancement request for this?
Sorry for posting on two newsgroups, but I was not sure which was
appropriate.

I was looking at the views (ResourceNavigator, etc) and the commands
(buildProject, selectWorkingSets, etc). I guess this is fairly generic
code, but it only makes sense in an "IDE".
The only immediately noticeable thing I get from adding
org.eclipse.ui.ide is some unwanted menu items ("File Open..." in the
file menu, "Software Updates..." on the Help menu, etc).

That's why I said "if you don't care about size". Some apps might indeed
want to use working sets and some might want to use core.resources and
hence all the core.resources related UI stuff.

Your RCP application can provide its own workbench advisor and hence
remove the unwanted menu(items)s easily.
