I support Simos' suggestion. I would not normally agree with a
workaround like this but since it is a developer package it would be
tolerable.

I also think current eclipse users would find it pretty intuitive. In
the past (when eclipse was part of ubuntu) I always started eclipse as
root when I wanted to install a plugin.

That would be a great first step without having to heavily hack eclipse
itself.

Implementation suggestion: Since menu item comments show in tooltips, I
would suggest pointing out that when as root you can/should install
plugins.
