Description

If you unzip the target plugin zip file, you get something which looks like a plugin folder. But it actually contains another folder of exactly the same name which is the real plugin folder. This makes the normal action of unzipping the zip file and installing the resulting folder into the Eclipse plugin directory not work.

Of course, this may go away if we don't use zip packaging at all for plugins... (see UIMA-203)
