Connectors can supply an alternate editor id and it would be convenient to also allow connectors to provide an alternate editor input.

Standard TaskEditorInput used unless conenctorUi provides an alternate. Steffen, if you could review that would be great.

What is the driver for providing an alternative editor input?

I have a connector that needs to open a completely different editor given a task. It requires a different editor input.
