No doubt that WTP hosts most of the web technology related tools and JS EPP would be a great addition. However I think WTP has stagnated and could not pass beyond JEE and server based technologies while the web technologies did. This may all be my perception but WTP charter[1] talking in detail about server based apps on scope does not help either. I have nothing against server based apps, I am still a committer for WTP Server tools, but WTP needs less server and JEE and more node.js, cordova to change its stagnated perception.
