Subject: [platform-ui-dev] Migration issues for UI persistence
When shutting down, the workbench persists which views are open and where.
When moving from release 2.X to 3.0, it may be possible that Views had
their IDs renamed. For example, a view that was provided by Tool X, was
pushed up into framework G. It is possible to update references in
perspectives which used this view, but it isn't possible to update the
persisted window state.
To solve this problem, could Tool X provide a migration mapping in their
plugin.xml? Stating that View xyz is now replaced by view abc? Otherwise,
I think you get a popup dialog stating that a view could not be restored
when restarting a workspace the first time.
