+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #252797 +++

All plug-ins (bundles) must use the true bundle form. That is, provide a manifest.mf file, and not rely on the plugin.xml file being 'translated' into a manifest.mf file at initial startup. See bug 130598. With that, empty plugin.xml files in the presence of a manifest.mf file should not be included in a bundle.

GEF correctly supports this requirement for Galileo.
