The libs/gwt-dev-tools.jar in the com.google.gwt.eclipse.core is extracted from
the GWT tools so that the plug-in can invoke JSNI functionality in its editor.
The current version is quite old and caused out-of sync compilation issues when
moving to Tycho/Maven.
Currently the method of rebuilding the jar is to somehow use the
tools/gwt-dev-tools and tools/gwt-dev-tools-gen projects to extract the needed
GWT classes and their transitive dependencies (which included JDT code, hence
the out-of-sync issue). Figure out whether it is better to just rebuild that
full set of transitive dependencies (and make sure the use of third party
libraries is documented) or find the third-party dependencies in the Orbit and
other Eclipse plug-ins.
