Same here.

This is one idea.
Another would be to package the GWT compiler only which has fewer deps
and not the dev tools.
I have begun working on this. The first problem is that it does not
compile against jdt 3.5 (sid version) but jdt 3.4. The first thing I
wanted to try was to embed jdt 3.4.
I'm very interested in helping bug I haven't found time to go further yet.
