org.eclipse.ui.internal.EditorReference.createPartHelper():
if (part != null && part instanceof MultiEditor) {
multiEditorChildren = manager.openMultiEditor(this,
(AbstractMultiEditor) part, (MultiEditorInput) editorInput);
}

The call to open multi editor inputs is still guarded by the sublcass, even though the method says it takes AbstractMultiEditor.

The call turns out to be correct.  MultiEditor get the call early and all other AbstractMultiEditor get the call late.
