Description Michael Valenta

In Team, we open editors on IStorage instances that represent remote files. We've had to tailor our open logic to:

1) Avoid opening an external editor since external editors require that the contents be available in a local file.

2) Catch the PartInitException and open a basic text editor if the default editor failed. We did this because, at the time, there were several internal editors that only really worked if the input was an IFile.

I thought it was worth mentioning these since they may apply to IFileStore based editor inputs as well.

I'm not really sure where to start with this one. Dani or Michael could you give me some details as to where you think this work needs to happen?

Normally one should only use FileStoreEditorInput if there's an EFS (e.g. local or for IFiles) that can handle it. Not sure why you'd use a file store editor input for IStorage. Not sure whether this is more a asking for the same as in bug 50287.
