The Java compare editor should either support mark occurrences (preferred) or not show occurrence annotations at all.

Steps:
- open a CU editor
- set caret into a name and wait until mark occurrences highlights the name
- Compare With > Latest from HEAD
=> left pane contains occurrence annotations, but I found no way to get rid of them in the compare editor

Please only one item per bug report ;-)

The problem is covered by bug 64911. I suggest we keep this as the enhancement.

Note that to support this we need the AST. I suggest we bundle AST-based features into one bigger package of new features. Before doing this we should make the normal text compare editor based.
