Well, I've come up with a (sad excuse for) workaround. When I reverted to 
2.0.4 I was at least able to get the Designer to come up. 2.2.0 was 
unsuccessful. But that of course generated two other issues:
- Can't use the new cell features -- can live with that for now
- Get the dreaded generic plugin failure when I try to run as a GWT app from 
Eclipse

At the moment they are only sucky inconveniences as I'm not using cells that 
much yet and was able to back them out. And I can still deploy the app via 
Tomcat and it works.

But this is definitely not a reason for the GWT folks to pop open a beer.

Konstantin suggested additional dump info. Frankly I've already toasted a 
day on this and don't have any more time so I'm gonna trudge forward with my 
workaround. But it's extremely easy to reproduce: Fresh Helios-SR2, 1.6.0_24 
jre, fresh install of latest GPE, GWT, and Designer exactly as documented at 
the site. Fresh brand new boilerplate GreetServlet. Bingo - instant 
reproduction. Without even touching my Composite.

While I'm in a whiny mood, I tried to downgrade to the previous GPE but 
could not find it. So another question for the GWT folks -- where is it 
hiding? Or do you suggest doing a full backup of my Eclipse install before a 
seemingly harmless upgrade to the latest GWT? I backup my Workspace hourly, 
but usually save the Eclipse install for anticipated big changes.

GWT is a GREAT product, please keep it the best of breed it is and treat 
this as a Priority 1!

Thanks,
Joe
