I noticed the help popup for the standard component views we ship with
	Eclipse UI is different - is there a reason?

	For example, select the Task view and press F1. You get a help popup and
	at the bottom is a "down arrow". Click on it and a little menu appears with the
	options Workbench Concepts, Workbench Tasks, Workbench References.

	Now select the Properties view and press F1. You get a help popup and at the bottom
	is 3 links - Workbench Concepts, Workbench Tasks, Workbench References.

	Outline view says "Context help not found" (there is a PR for this
	somewhere else)

	Navigator works the same as Task view

	Repositories works like Properties view, but also has the "down arrow" button
	but with nothing in the menu (why are we even display it then?)

	Bookmark works the same as Task view.

	So which way is better? Using the links or the menu? Why is Properties view
	different for its help popup?

	Looking more closely at the message, the one for Task, Bookmark, and Navigator
	view seems to be some generic help message from the workbench. Meanwhile the
	Properties view has a message related to the view itself.

	Hopefully all this help stuff was sorted out in 0.125 build?

   	Task, Bookmark, and Navigator are doing it "Correctly"
	Outline as you mention is currently missing its help contents 
	1GF66A4: ITPUI:WIN98 - Outline has no help
	It is also not using a context computer which would give it the geneic links but we are not going
	to fix this for the beta.
	The properties view is using a context computer but it uses to show help for the properties.
	It could be modified to also get the generic help as well.

	Actually the properties view is working correctly, it is getting the generic help.
	The reason you are seeing differences is the different content and the way the help system's 
	info pop deals with it.
	We pass the help support system an array of context ids.
	Each id maps to a description and 0 or more links
	The help support system combines these into a single description and local links as well
	as links that appear under the down arrow.
	Suggest move this PR to ITPHELP to see if they can make their presentation appear more consistent 
	for the various cases described.
