Almost. AST/Element views are useful for JDT core developers (ecj is a subset of JDT core).

If you want it to be in other packages, open tickets for the package maintainers.

If the mention on the site includes hint how to install, IMHO that's enough, but I have no preference here.

Who needs that? JDT developers get the tool for free via SDK, others most likely don't want that anyway.

It is completely unrelated to ecj separation from JDT core.
Ecj separation from JDT core means in short that ecj is a *real* bundle now, that can be used as a full featured Java compiler inside IDE that does NOT have entire JDT tooling installed.

It was there before, and is still under same id.
As of today, 4.26 version is https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.eclipse.jdt/ecj/3.32.0

Well, bugs exist in every software.
May be the one who cares and sees the warning would be triggered by this feature mentioned and would contribute a patch?
