Hi Juerg,
It would help, if you can try testing the latest SNAPSHOT as outlined in
https://sling.apache.org/documentation/development/ide-tooling.html#update-site-installation
(there is a p2 update site at https://nightlies.apache.org/sling/eclipse/)
The upcoming version has lots of issues fixed (including compatibility with
newer Eclipse versions):
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/SLING/versions/12342835
Let us know if you encounter issues not yet reported
Thanks,
Konrad
