There was a brief discussion [1] of this topic earlier in the e4 mailing
list, and I'd like to bring it up again.
The e4 workbench model gives us much greater flexibility in composing a
workbench. Up to now, the focus has been on defining the model structure
and ensuring adequate flexibility. RCP apps will have all kinds of
flexibility. However, we still need to define what the default e4
workbench model/layout will be, and how bundles contribute to this model.
Do we still have perspectives and a perspectiveExtensions contribution
mechanism? Do we loosen up the structure of perspectives? How do bundles
define their participation in a layout?
I've opened a bug to gather ideas and track the discussion. Please watch
this bug and respond there with your thoughts.
