Hi again, I just looked at the UISpec4J Framework and it seems that this is the *equivalent* to SWTBot.
So my suggestion would be to write a script that will generate code so that those methods can be accessed via RMI. You can look at the RemoteBot of the STF. Although this was purely written by hand (Please do not ask my why ...) it may be a good start.
