Agreed, as long as you are prepared for the inevitable 'room for error' as
described in this post.

Please respond to
platform-update-dev
CDT had at one point an update site, not sure if it's still up to date, but
to me that's beside the point. One of the nice features of Eclipse is the
ability to install something by simply copying it. I believe that should
continue to be supported in a first class fashion. Update sites should be a
convenience, not a requirement.
