Note that blacklisting Eclipse does not make a lot of sense. RCP applications based on Eclipse are not blacklisted, so it's not consistent.
Either you should blacklist all SWT-based applicaitons, either you should blacklist none of them.
I could see shortcuts on menu after the hack, and did not notice any difference in booting time. I tried 3 times with Eclipse using global menu, and 3 times without (current). All startups took 17s.
@Larsu Maybe you got an unlucky Eclipse boot when you tested. Can you retry on several boots instead of just a single one?
So I really support the idea of merging the branch and release a version that does not blacklist Eclipse.
