Please provide a means to override, overload, or completely disable the activation/deactivation control provided via the CustomTaskListDecorationDrawer in the Task List View. Unless mistaken, this Listener is instantiated in the view's createPartControl(Composite) method and is not accessible by a subclassed view. My project requires that tasks activate and deactivate automatically based on the attributes of the content (opened/edited in the users' RCP app) compared to the attributes in their assigned tasks (see Bug #217315). Activation is potentially a completely hidden behavior to the user. We'd like to be able to completely remove the controls from view, or replace them with ones that don't listen for mouse events. Note: Our subclass of Mylyn's TaskListView also includes its own ContentProvider and LabelProvider in order to display additional columns.
Chip: since this is not the intended UI for the Task List, it is unlikely we can prioritize this for 3.0. However, if you provide a patch and test case for the behavior that you're after we should be able to integrate this additional flexibility. Let me know if you need any assistance getting started. http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylyn_Contributor_Reference
This bug has gone stale. Chip, please reopen if you still require this functionality.
