In 3.8, my code calls
WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.getParent(). That returns a ToolBarManager subject o I can call ToolBarManager.update(). In 4.2, WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.getParent()
returns null. How can I get access to the ToolBarManager object or how can I make WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.
createControl() to be called again?

createControl(). At that point, I can create a different set of controls to the toolbar. It does not seems that the <control> tag can provide this capability.
It works the same way, as you're still supplying a WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.
