I haven't followed the whole discussion on this, but please remember the following: If libswt-gtk is built from eclipse source code and there is a security fix in the "eclipse" part (i.e. not related to libswt-gtk) in the stable release. People using libswt-gtk without eclipse will still have to download the binary packages for swt for no reason. Now I think creating useless traffic on the security servers is not good, especially if you think about the current bandwidth problems they have. just the 2 cents of a user...
