Screenshot of error dialog

Build ID: Eclipse-SDK-4.4m5-win32

When turning off a "Toolbar Visibility" item in the Customize Perspective Dialog accidentally, it may be impossible to re-add that contribution ("because all of its children are in unavailable command groups").

This error dialog leaves it unclear, how to enable respective command groups to get back to a sane state, thus it's problematic.

The expected workaround (Window > Reset Perspective) also doesn't work, leaving me in a state without toolbar that I cannot get out of. Thus marking as MAJOR.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Launch Eclipse SDK (opens in Java Perspective)
2. Window > Customize Perspective
3. On "Toolbar Visibility", uncheck the "File" node and click OK
4. Window > Customize Perspective
5. Try to re-enable the "File" Toolbar

--> An error dialog shows up (see attached).
