Not sure what you mean.  The data model is the script itself  
(although it doesn't have a built-in change notification mechanism).   
The View/Control is the ScriptTable.

If you're referring to the Launch step editor, then the data model is  
the script step, and the view/control is the StepEditor.  Again, the  
script step has no built-in change notification.

There hasn't been any need to support change notification from  
multiple sources since all changes are effected through the script  
editor.

NOTE doesn't it make sense to have an "import" button on the Launch  
step's classpath (or maybe make a dedicated "classpath" editor which  
includes one) rather than something as global as the main menu?

Your eclipse import could then be something that adheres to an  
interface and only optionally loaded.
