I am not sure about unpacking. OTOH I am concerned how archived
version of plugin will work - org.python.pydev starts python and
passes filename of PySrc/pycompletionserver.py to it but I wonder
where it gets extracted. I'm going to try it.

IMO this can be OK as long as you do not use P2 to manage your
installation. It should be possible to extract them into separate
directories and configure eclipse's P2 to get them from this location.
