Ed,

Yeah, it's certainly less than ideal. Note also that UML2 builds will stop
working (as will other Buckminster-based builds) early next year when the
Eclipse Foundation disables
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=521263> the CLI signing
service. So some minimal investment of time/energy will be required in
order to maintain the status quo for Photon...
