I vote against making it an Eclipse plugin for two main reasons: 1.) Not everyone uses eclipse. Some people use Java Studio, JCreator, Netbeans, vi, etc. 2.) Users don't want to run a developer environment to run a program. They want to double click on an icon and have the program appear. No need to make it more difficult to use than all the other PDF readers out there.
