Description Oleg Besedin CLA 2010-06-09 16:15:17 EDT 
The "@Preference" annotation can be used to inject values stored in prefernces nodes, but at present does not provide an ability to set or change preference value. 

We can check the desired type of the object to be injected and, if it is IEclipsePreferences, inject the node.

I'll use InstanceScope for injected nodes.
