3.0
when a generic method is invoked, the actual type arguments are inferred. an API
to ask for the inferred values would be useful.

Where would you want such an API ? The DOM AST could answer the inferred 
binding (which could be connected to original method).

on invocation nodes probably.
i know there's no single invocation node but it's bug 53586 (killed now, however)

Please elaborate on what exactly you need, and how you would access it.
Can commit for M4 until understood.

Hm, I have to admit that I don't really remember in what context I thought I
would need this. Thinking about it again, I found that the information is
already available via the IMethodBinding#getErasure() link (comparing the type
parameters of parameterized and generic types).

So, -1 from my part (i.e. nothing to be done here to make me happy).
But maybe Adam was thinking about something else.
