[Wtr-general] WATIR for Rich Internet Applications using Eclipse RCP ?

An increasing number of the products that I am looking at are being 
implemented using Eclipse RCP and are not solely browser based.

Has there been any thoughts or discussions of extending WATIR to support 
exercising the UI of Eclipse based RCP (Rich Client Platform) 
applications?

There are some tools that support this but they are either commercial or 
very tightly integrated into the Eclipse framework.
I would very interested in working with a lightweight library, such as 
WATIR, that would make RCP application testing as easy and accessable as 
IE (browser) based web testing.


Just wondering,

Scott
