It would be nice to have editorActions extension points to contribute actions to the editor toolbar and editor pulldown menu. For now there is no toolbar and pulldown for the editor.
As part of bug 154130 the editorActions and viewActions are being refactored into one extension point. View actions are created using menu:my.view.id. What were editorActions are created using menu:org.eclipse.ui.main.menu since that's where they go, and editorActions was really only about visibility. That means that theoretically, menu:my.editor.id could be used to create editor part menus. The same applies for toolbar:my.editor.id. This won't be supported in 3.3 because not only do you need to define editor actions, but you need the presentation to support them, and that's huge API work as well as presentation work. But at least the new menu API doesn't prevent it going forward. PW
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.
