Description Dirk Fauth CLA 2016-10-26 10:25:18 EDT 
I would like to suggest to move the @ContextValue annotation from e(fx)clipse to the platform.

https://wiki.eclipse.org/Efxclipse/Runtime/Recipes#Publishing_to_the_IEclipseContext

IMHO it is a very useful annotation to put objects on an IEclipseContext without relying on internals. The abstraction level of our DI API would become better by introducing this.

@Tom
Could you please link to the sources in e(fx)clipse?
We should also discuss where to put the necessary implementation classes.
