Re: [platform-swt-dev] Table Off-End

["Mike Wilson" <Mike_Wilson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The problem with that argument is that
several of the platforms have native lazy table/tree/list filling support.
If we're going to be able to make use of this, then the SWT team ought
to be the team that provides it.

Since this is an application issue, it seems to me like it would fit
in better in JFace than in SWT.  SWT is raw widget API, whereas JFace
provides application model code (such as widget data models), and this
special widget behavior seems consistent with the JFace mission.  If
you
are building desktop applications with SWT, there's really not a great
reason to not be using JFace anyway IMO (besides the short term issue of
JFace not being well separated from Eclipse, IIRC).
