Description Eric Moffatt

I've gotten an initial implementation for an Editor Area up by hacking the SashRenderer to look for a specific 'area' tag but I don't think that's the right way to go.

We need labeling info for areas, both to show in the UI as well as when the area is minimized...

I'd say a new element MArea that inherits both MPSC & MUILabel should do it...??

Some initial thoughts:
a) Naming: MArea - not sure i like the name
b) Why not simply adding MUILabel to PSC?

An initial version - is my assumption correct that UILabel is needed to display the area in the Trim? 

I've added the MArea to the advanced package - is that ok with you?

Tom, I've made a slight change...the EClass in the ecore should just have been 'Area'. This lead to an MMArea interface backed by an MAreaImpl... which is different to the other classes.

Committed in >20100922. Rename the new EClass 'Area' to bring it in line with the rest of the model.
