The cool new Organize manifest wizard should fully disable to include the text input field for the package filter.

This one is interesting, but may be a JFace thing. Janek, if it also happens in the Plug-in Import Wizard, move to Platform/UI. Otherwise, something is fishy in this wizard.
Seems like a JFace thing, what do you think Platform/UI?
I've been told the 'Organize Manifests' is PDE-related so over to you folks...
Eric, when pressing Finish, client should not be in the business of disabling fields on the wizard page. This should be handled at the wizard level, much like all other controls (eg. buttons, etc.) on the page.
Wassim, thanks for the info. Do you know who -is- supposed to be disabling the field? (so I can route it to the correct folks)? Karice, for now I'll tentatively assign this to you based on the 'wizard' comment. Feel free to re-assign or punt back if you feel it's been mis-assigned.
Susan, I think this is a JFace bug.
Looked into this briefly just to make sure it is indeed a JFace problem. OrganizeManifestsWizard uses a JFace operation to run its code, which results in the WizardDialog attempting to disable all the controls on the active page. The code that traverses the widget tree is in ControlEnableState. So this is definitely JFace but not yet assigned a milestone to fix.
Nothing funny looking in the client wizard. Investigate later. The only possible oddity I see is a composite nested within a group, but since the label is disabled, it clearly was able to traverse into the composite. Debug this and produce a plain SWT test case if the widget is never traversed.
changing prio and status per platform ui bug guidelines
I20080716-1200 I didn't try to put a breakpoint to pause/stop the wizard's progress but I noticed that the 'Package filter:' text field is indeed disabled if I were to just click on the 'Finish' button and focus all my eyes on the text field('s enablement state).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
