I think that would happen if there was some caching happening on the 
framework for the plugin.properties files. I would be surprised that 
this happens though... unless the plugin.properties file is read on the 
plugin without starting the bundle, and the fragments are not looked up 
at that point ( and I believe the UI does just that for the view names 
for example, they read them and they only load the bundle when the view 
is brought to front for the first time)... so yes, that looks like a 
very big bug for the platform folks. I think it would go under Platform

I don't graps the action item out of this. Can you be more explicit ? I 
don't know of the history of this.
