Newer Eclipse versions no longer launch a workspace when running a test outside the UI thread. Because this is a requirement for all of our SWTBot tests, we can no longer run them locally. The tests were originally written like that because they open a modal dialog and would thus lead to a deadlock if the test is also executed within the UI thread. But thanks to the changes to the `UiContext`, we have a way to make this work regardless.
