[platform-swt-dev] Any chances we can get #466499 in for Mars?

[André Dietisheim <adietish@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

in JBoss Tools we're unfortunately hit by a serious bug in jface trees 
for SWT/GTK3 (all elements get the same label):
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19853

This bug unfortunately makes our tooling unusable with Eclipse/Mars for 
Linux/GTK3.
Snjezana Peco made a patch in 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=466499 but I was told that 
this wont make it to Eclipse/Mars.
I already talked to Alexander Kurtakov which explained to me that the 
patch is late and would need 2 committers and 2 platform leads to vote 
for it.
I was hoping that we could get this approved since we would have no 
other choice but to tell our users to painfully wait for another 6 long 
months before Mars SR1.

Thanks
André
