Description Jean-Michel Lemieux CLA 2005-04-12 22:45:02 EDT 
3.1 M6

It's strange that this method returns an IViewPart but doesn't actually add the
part to a page. Since there is no other API to actually do anything with this
part, at least not that I could find, why doesn't this method even exist on the
interface? Could it be removed or perhaps documented why I client should call
this? Since this is new API in 3.1 maybe it should be fixed up before we ship?

Opinions nick?

It makes sense not to expose this to clients.

Ack.  Too late for this...  :(
