Yes, it uses ~/.eclipse, else it would not be there in the first place.
It is used for storing generic things that are not "workspace" specific
and it also stores locally installed plugins there.

Also, if you still experience the crashes with the Ubuntu installed
eclipse after removing libraries in ~/.eclipse, then make sure you do
not have old xulrunner installations on your system (e.g.
xulrunner-1.9.1)

Bug description:
Eclipse crashes (including the whole VM) when hovering over a method or class name (that displays a tooltip) making developement very difficult because one hovers over methods sooner or later unintentionally.
This happens with Sun JRE and OpenJDK.
Problem seems to be a bug in libmozjs.so .
