I'd certainly like to see this. In particular, when we have talked
publically about how e4 would be more dynamic/responsive to develop for,
this was the kind of thing we had in mind.

I'd argue that it's worth thinking about it soon, since there are
potentially interesting issues w.r.t. state management, SWT widget
lifecycle, etc.

... and if we end up with a "destroy and recreate" model, we need to do a
better job of maintaining state than we currently do (e.g. it's not ok for
the tree to be recreated with all the nodes collapsed, etc.)
