Description Christian Damus CLA 2008-07-10 11:51:38 EDT 
The EMF Model Validation framework should define an Ecore model of the meta-data required by the framework for the definition of constraints.  This would capture, basically, the information defined for the default plugin.xml-based provider's extension-point schema.  The advantages are:

  - removing the burden of large plugin.xml content from the
    Eclipse extension registry
  - modeling your data is always a good thing  :-)  The
    generated editor is easy to use, and potentially even
    a graphical editor (GMF-based) could be provided by the
    SDK
  - access to constraints defined in EMF resources, anywhere
    that EMF can find them:  plug-in contents, HTTP on the
    web, repositories via CDO/JCRM, etc.

Rudy,

the fix is in HEAD. There will be a milestone release at sometime in the near future. Meanwhile you can try out the latest and greatest from Hudson.

Closing: as per the last comment, the fix had been commited at the time, and there has definitly been actual releases since then.
