GWT (Google Web Toolkit) Designer not working on Ubuntu 12.10

The GWT Desinger is not working on Ubuntu 12.10. It worked on Ubuntu 12.04. I installed the Eclipse Plugin as described on the GWT Homepate
If I want to open the Design-View (for an xml-GWT-File), Eclipse crashes (prompt closing of the application).

I found this two workarounds for which are for 12.04 (but on 12.04 i did not need this to get it working - it worked out of the box for me). I tried them on my 12.10 Ubuntu but they are not working. But I have to say that I can't find the "Use WebKit for rendering GWT UI (if available)"-Flag.

What can I do to get the GWT Designer working? I tested it successfully again on a 12.04 Ubuntu VMware image. If I don't get a solution, I have to downgrade my Ubuntu to 12.04 again.

I found a solution that works (but only with Eclipse 3.7.2):

Download Eclipse Classic 3.7.2.

Install GWT Designer via Plugin-Link in Eclipse as described here.

Install the GWT SDK (and the rest) via Plugin-Link in Eclipse as described here

Execute Workaround 2 from this page.
