build I20041221 WorkbenchSiteProgressService.runInUIThread has: // TODO: should not access WorkbenchPart directly -- IWorkbenchPart defines the API if (part instanceof WorkbenchPart) ((WorkbenchPart) part).showBusy(busy); See bug 82106 for a recommendation.
The comment is wrong. I have removed it
No, the issue is the same as in bug 82106. The workbench should only talk to parts via IWorkbenchPart and sub-interfaces. WorkbenchPart is on the client-side of the API and is just a convenience implementation of IWorkbenchPart. If a mix-in for showBusy is not going to be added, the comment should be left in.
There are currently no plans to work on this although we would be happy to review a patch
