Depends. Yes, if you want to use the beans XML editor. No, if only  
want to use Spring Beans view + validator.
It's the same as with the beans graph. If you want to use it then you  
have to install GEF.

WST (and all it dependencies) will be optional plugins.

IMHO displaying only the first attribute in the outline is not  
enough. The bean XML editor will display the nodes in the outline  
view with the attributes  which identify the artifacts from Spring  
beans config XML as best as possible. For example, for a bean we will  
display the ID / name and the class (if any). Please have a look at  
the outline view in the  screen shoot here -> http://springide.org/ 
project/wiki/BeansXmlEditor

Cheers
