It's pretty easy - I just built one. Startup time is almost
instantaneous, and it's using 15MB, most of which is shared.

I don't work with the OS team, and can only offer my own personal
opinions... FWIW, I believe that we would need to see a critical mass of
useful applications (or a single overwhelmingly important one) using SWT
before it would be considered a core part of the base distribution. 
That's why apps like sqladmin are important.

I believe the license (CPL 1.0) is liberal enough for inclusion in a
free Linux distro.
