Description lucas bigeardel

EMF Model search should take advantage of a SelectionToViewer convenience API giving possibility to developers to transparently open & select elements in graphical & non graphical editors (ecore tree based editors).

This could allow users to automatically open an editor (graphical or not) with corresponding results highlighted by double clicking on a given search result.

This bug depends on a future OpenParticipant mechanism to be introduced in order Editors keeping aware potential openers which object they can adapt a selection to. (eg: a getOpenParticipantAdapter should be contributed by Editors in order to handle Selection elements in a custom way).

In this logic a same editor could be adapted to several different selection element opening strategy. As a result, a client application should be able to query platform for openParticipant contributions each time it wants an element selection to be open a corresponding editor.

reused existing Ecore editor open/selection mechanism for tree editors & created an openDiagramPArtcipant ext point to get this feature implemented.
