Decrease time to availability of shared local servers #307

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In CodeTogether 4.1 the ability to share local servers was added. And it's great. But it could be a little better because it can take CodeTogether up to 30 seconds to detect that the server has been started and this delays when it can be made available to other participants.

Describe the solution you'd like It's the IDE that starts the server, so the IDE knows as soon as the server is available. Even better, Eclipse and IntelliJ (at least) have dedicated views for the servers it has started. Perhaps a little tighter integration between CodeTogether and these server views could be done so that the server starts could be detected instantaneously? Or at least much faster?
