Description Sebastian Zarnekow

External compilers may provide errors / warnings in addition to the validation rules. If one does not want / cannot invoke those compilers for a specific EObject it may be interesting to create markers from a builder participant.

Couldn't those components just use the IResource API to add and remove markers?

I like out abstraction on markers better. Issues are far easier to create and thereby allow an easier API. Furthermore its much nicer for clients to use a framework that deals with all the marker-lifecycle stuff.

Clients are free to use the IResource-API.
