SWTDesigner Support for JGoodies FormLayout?

I'm a big fan of JGFL for Swing. Do you have any plans to support it for SWT?

The only SWT port I know is SwtForms (http://ffxml.net/swtforms/) but I don't know how mature or stable that project is.

Sorry, Eric: I see you already answered this in July:

Yes. We would like to support JGFL in SWT as well.

I don't have a time schedule for that yet.

We would still like to do this, but it is a matter of finding time with so many other priorities (especially in the RCP space).

Have you looked at the free cell layout mode we added to SWT GridLayout in v4.2.0? It makes GridLayout as easy to use as JGFL.
