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've tested hack described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdbusmenu/+bug/618587/comments/46 with:
* Eclipse Juno using org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64 version 3.100.v4233d
* Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, up-to-date on 2012-10-17

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.
