Evaluate Eclipse e4

[muuki88]

Task

Eclipse e4 will be the next main Eclipse release with a lot of new features like

• Simpler declarative UI design
• POJOs with Annotations and DI instead of inheritance
• Eclipse Gemini Annotations http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/290891/

We should start a custom branch and testing/deploying with e4.

Problem

Hopefully Scala IDE will somehow work with e4. If a Maven build is
completely set up, this will be a smaller problem.
