Really, once you get the basics of the jetty config file, it's just
faster and easier to run jetty directly rather than messing around
with the eclipse plugin.   You don't have to worry about the plugin
supporting your jetty version or settings.   When you want to upgrade,
you just update your user library to contain the new jetty version.

Basically, you build a jar file instead of a war/ear file, then you
just run it with java -jar myapp.jar.   You'd probably want to set an
environment variable to point at your config file or something along
those lines.
