Hi Cameron

We're actually already providing support in the Eclipse e4 project for 
debugging Rhino however I'm fairly embarassed to say it's not documented at 
all well at this point in the release.
http://wiki.eclipse.org/E4/JavaScript#JavaScript_Rhino_Debugging_Support

One thing worth adding is that although this work was originally done as 
part of e4 it will likely surface in the current Helios / 3.6 release of 
Eclipse in the JavaScript tooling.
