Uninstalling features from central is misleading if the feature is required in JBDS

      3. Select some installed feature integrated in JBDS (like Openshift)
      4. Click uninstall
      5. Follow the wizard

      Since some features are both in default JBDS installation and in central, you can try uninstalling them from central. The uninstall wizard will show a strange cryptic message saying:

      "#the selected feature# cannot be fully uninstalled because other installed software requires it. The parts that are not required will be uninstalled".

      That basically means nothing gets uninstalled, but it still requires a restart just for good measure.

      The question is - Can it either be more clear that you can't just uninstall those features using central, or just allow it?
