Description Melanie Bats

To develop UML Designer, I am using a target platform which contains the uml metamodel. When I try to reference the uml metamodel from the "Metamodels" tab on a representation, if the metamodel is only defined in the TP, the wizard does not proposes it as possible selection. As I am not using the live editing mode, it could be interesting, that the metamodels selection wizard provides also the nsURI coming from the target platform.

We should probably have a look on how the code evolved in the EcoreEditor when support for Target Platform Ecore's was added (especially in the dialog which opens when picking "load resource") and adapt our code in the same way to get the same dialog.

See org.eclipse.emf.ecore.presentation.EcoreActionBarContributor.ExtendedLoadResourceAction


This dialog was used in the previous "metamodel" property section of the RepresentationDescription and RepresentationExtensionDescription, see: 
 . RepresentationDescriptionMetamodelPropertySection 
 . RepresentationExtensionDescriptionMetamodelPropertySection


The property sections to correct are: 
 . RepresentationDescriptionMetamodelPropertySectionSpec
 . RepresentationExtensionDescriptionMetamodelPropertySectionSpec
