Currently, the NavigatorContentServiceContentProvider chooses the first 
descriptor it finds to provide content. This causes problems for providers who 
provide for the sames types of content, since the loading order of the content 
descriptors dictates the content provider.  There is "a" solution that works 
well for such senarios - see the GMF project 
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.core.service.Service.  The service provides a 
Priority and a Policy for each service call. This allows service control over 
who and how many content provider get a chance to provide content.

This bug was moved to 'closed' state, since it is so old is is assumed its dup, invalid, or worksforme resolution is no longer in qustion and the bugzilla needs no further attention. Feel free to re-open, or open a new bug, if this semi-automatic processing was done in error in this case.
