Summary:	ContextButtonPadData extensibility
Product:	[Modeling] Graphiti	Reporter:	Volker Wegert <eclipse>

Description Volker Wegert

Build Identifier: 0.7.0

IContextButtonPadData has the annotations
 * @noimplement This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
 * @noextend This interface is not intended to be extended by clients.
set. The only provided implementation class DefaultContextButtonPadData has the annotations 
 * @noextend This class is not intended to be subclassed by clients.
set. This is confusing for new users - if I want to add some functionality, e. g. change the pad location, I have to either implement the interface or extend the class, both of which is discouraged by the annotations.

Reproducible: Always

Of course M5 not M4

I changed the JavaDoc for DefaultContextButtonPadData so that it allows subclassing and added a word of warning regarding changing default behavior that might lead to inconsistent behavior accross different Graphiti editors.
