[dsdp-tm-dev] Committers please vote: [api]removing remoteSystemsViewPreferencesActions and dynamicPopupMenuExtensions extension points

Dear Committers,

when reviewing the state of RSE API for M7, I stumbled
over the following two extension points:

   org.eclipse.rse.ui.remoteSystemsViewPreferencesActions  
   org.eclipse.rse.ui.dynamicPopupMenuExtensions

I am very confident that these two are obsolete and easy
to replace by the more modern Platform extension point

   org.eclipse.ui.commands

or probably the slightly older extension points 
org.eclipse.ui.viewActions and org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus.

In order to keep our API small, I'd therefore like to remove
these two extension points. Please vote with the new Bugzilla
voting system (+1,0,-1; on the right-hand upper part of bugzilla)
on the corresponding bug reports:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=185554
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=185552

If I get positive votes, I'd try to squeeze this change in for 
M7. From the bug reports, by clicking on the "URL" link
you'll be taken to the current API Docs for the extension 
points.

Cheers,
