Description Rolf Theunissen

FilteredTableBaseHandler, the superclass for Ctrl+E handler, can easily replace AbstractTableInformationControl, the current superclass for BasicPartList, to select an part, with the chevron on a PartStack.

After that, AbstractTableInformationControl can be removed.

Rolf, I move that 4.16 M1, please retarget if you do not plan to work on this for M1.

I don't have plans to work on this. Only thought it would be good to consider this also for the change of Bug 552144, as there are now two menu's with similar functionality with slightly different behavior.

Not that easily as it seems. FilteredTableBaseHandler is part of org.eclipse.ui so we would have to move it first to JFace as e4 plug-in cannot depend on e3 API.
