If you open an Application.e4xmi within the SimpleIDE example application a NPE is thrown.

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.eclipse.e4.tools.emf.ui.internal.common.ModelEditor.setFocus(ModelEditor.java:660)

The reason seem to be the clipboardService which is defined
	@Inject
	@Optional
	private IClipboardService clipboardService;

but there is no null check in the setFocus method.
