Description Curtis Windatt CLA 2008-08-07 11:47:05 EDT 
By creating a new plug-in project that contributes to the UI, you can access the custom plug-in wizard.  On this wizard you select which templates you want to use to create different parts of the project.

When you first open this wizard page, every template is selected.  If you start hitting next, you'll get a page for every template available.  I expect that most people are going to want to select a couple of different templates.  It makes more sense to have the templates be unselected by default.  It makes it easier for the user to select a few.

This is a trivial bug because there are select/deselect all buttons.

That's interesting that we explicitly selected everything.
