Hi Paul,

Understood. So in case of an "RCP/IDE" application the PlatformUI path will be available at any level (provided the workbench has been initialized).

Well, it is not my current use case... But yes. I was thinking about headless applications (e.g. all Eclipse RT related stuff) with the model and the DI framework. So it would be nice if I could get a hold of these services from outside of the org.eclipse.ui realm. 

In that case whoever wrote the headless app would have been responsible for creating the Eclipse4 application and model and runtime contexts (the renderers create these when using E4Application), and you would have to negotiate with them on how to access the model root and appropriate IEclipseContext.
