Yes, the Platform feature is indeed not upgraded. :-(

That being said, I found an issue after upgrading: JDT upgrades fine to
Photon M5 but content assist then fails with a NoSuchMethodError, as it
apparently doesn't work with an older Platform:

> Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.eclipse.jface.internal.text.html.HTMLPrinter.insertPageProlog(Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;ILorg/eclipse/swt/graphics/RGB;Lorg/eclipse/swt/graphics/RGB;Ljava/lang/String;)V

Shouldn't the JDT upgrade have been prevented by p2 during "Check for
Upgrades"? If you agree, I'll file a bug with JDT; they probably missed
updating a version requirement somewhere.

Best wishes,

Andreas
