What I do for Leiningen in Cursive is basically mimic what the lein script does, and download the uberjars to .lein/self-installs, and then run processes with those on the classpath. Would something similar for Boot work? As I understand it, boot.sh is just a tricky wrapper around an embedded jar, so hopefully that would work. I'm also selfishly interested in this because I don't support boot yet but I want to.
