I think when you run the IDV in eclipse eclipse already has the class loaded.
The IDV plugin manager just blindly loads the class from the plugin. I'll look 
into
that.

As for your ClassNotFoundException try making your jar with the classes in the 
MUControls
subdirectory. When the class loader gets called looking for a class it looks
for the fully qualified package name. Your jar should look like this (ignoring 
the .java files):
harpo.unidata.ucar.edu: jar -tvf mu.jar 
     0 Mon May 14 16:47:32 MDT 2007 META-INF/
    71 Mon May 14 16:47:32 MDT 2007 META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

Not like this:
harpo.unidata.ucar.edu: jar -tvf MU_PlugIn.jar 
  9025 Mon May 14 13:48:30 MDT 2007 MUController.class
   345 Mon May 14 13:48:30 MDT 2007 MUControllercontrols.xml
