Description mklaehn 2011-04-12 13:59:10 UTC 
If I

1) create a Platform Application,
2) add a module to it,
3) add a Java class to that module and
4) insert a main method.

I can not run that file. Neither via the entry in the menubar nor the popup menu.

The usecase would be to test some small featureset without having to copy it into another javase project for testing.

Already possible so long as the class is in Test Packages rather than Source Packages. (Need not use JUnit.)
