Look at E4Workbench there is a constant RENDERER_FACTORY_URI which
defaults to ...WorkbenchRendererFactory. You need to subclass
WorkbenchRendererFactory and provide the framework your custom URL.

You can do that via:
* plugin.xml
* command-line parameters

Take a look at E4Application to findout how this is done.
