I'm not sure if I should laugh, or cry? If they are true examples, those example components could just be omitted without loss of core functionality, right? Even then, I guess I've not read the guide lines that say "incubating examples" can be released without an "incubating" label (since "incubating" refers to a project, not a component?).
I hope this "workaround" is not simply a way to "work around the release rules" established by the Eclipse Foundation ... since I think we all know what that means ... after all, as committers, don't we agreed to abide by those rules? But, I'm sure Ed meant something else than the way I am reading it.

New optional experimental functionality may be shipped in examples plugins.
