Hum, I didn't know it was that much of a pain to use Java 1.7 on a Mac. 
If I had known I might have delayed the DDT version requirements bump, 
but now it's too late as it's way down the road, there is a lot of 1.7 
use already.

And regardless, it shouldn't be that much of a pain to put a newer 
version of Java. Version 1.7 has been out for quite some time. But it 
does seem Mac OS X is quite fussy about it:

I don't if this might have helped, but you can specify to Eclipse which 
JVM to use:

This means you don't have to use the default JVM but another installed one.
