target def file

I created a target definition file from eclipse/updates/3.6 and Helios, to include the Eclipse SDK, EMF SDK, and Xtext SDK.

It downloaded all of the bundles and features to <workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool

When I made it my target platform, it seems to have include all of the plugins, but only the features (org.eclipse.platform, org.eclipse.sdk, etc) from the first site.  The XText and EMF features are missing, and so when I create a site project and try and add features to it, I only see the SDK features.

This is fixed in 3.7, all feature models from the target platform are available in the update site editor.  As 3.6.2 is already in RC builds, I don't see us fixing this in a maintenance release.

I am marking as WONTFIX.
