What would be Canvas in Eclipse platform

I want to develop a game that would be an Eclipse plugin. However I am not yet sure what Class should be used for drawing 2D and 3D objects. The issue is even more complicated as Eclipse shifts to 4.x APIs, that are render-neutral (SWT or JavaFX).

Some old list of RCP aplications is at http://www.eclipse.org/community/rcpos.php There is olso outdated page Using OpenGL in SWT Applications, though I heard that there is new development of linking with OpenGL.

What would be modern Canvas in Eclipse platform?

What API to use for drawing 2D & 3D inside Eclipse plugin/application ?

UPDATE: Found that http://www.eclipse.org/gef/ has Draw2d http://www.eclipse.org/gef/draw2d/index.php (org.eclipse.draw2d) - A layout and rendering toolkit for displaying graphics on an SWT Canvas.
