Description Rolf Theunissen CLA 2019-06-19 15:34:40 EDT 
AbstractTableInformationControl contains the following comment:

/*
 * Bug in GTK, see SWT bug: 62405 Editor drop down performance slow on
 * Linux-GTK on mouse move. Rather then removing the support altogether
 * this feature has been worked around for GTK only as we expect that
 * newer versions of GTK will no longer exhibit this quality and we will
 * be able to have the desired support running on all platforms. See
 * comment https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=62405#c22 TODO:
 * remove this code once bug 62405 is fixed for the mainstream GTK
 * version
 */

Bug 62405 has been marked resolved (wontfix) for over 10 years now, as the bug is long gone in mainstraim GTK.

The workaround can be removed.
