FRCSim on Windows 10 Linux Subsystem

When the Windows 10 Anniversary Update came out, Microsoft released the Windows Subsystem for Linux as a beta Windows feature, which essentially installs Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on your Windows 10 PC. A while ago I was experimenting with running FRCSim on an Ubuntu laptop I had laying around. Installing the Linux subsystem on my Windows 10 laptop got me thinking; would it be possible to install the simulator on Windows 10, using the Ubuntu subsystem? Has anyone tried this, or are there any reasons that it wouldn't work? And if you could get it to install, would you also have to install the Linux version of Eclipse in order to push code to it?
