What if the desktop version had an extra tab - just for this tools.jar
fiasco?
It could (briefly explain and) prompt you for the location of your copy
(or even your JVM), perhaps take a brief look to see if it's actually
the correct tools.jar, plop it into the proper lib folder and restart
itself.
I've done so many installs that it's almost second-nature to me now, but
I can certainly see how this process could dissuade a new developer from
becoming a loyal OpenBD fan.
