When using ModelComparator.compare() it is not possible to supply own settings that are then given to the match engine option map. For our concerns it would be nice if the match engine could have access to the CompareSettings for instance.
Building a workaround and not calling ModelComparator.compare(), but still using the resource handling of ModelComparator, works, but it's a lot re-implementing stuff that is already done there. So it would be nice if you could somehow add this functionality to the ModelComparator class.
Another small improvement concerns the Match Mode Dialog, it would be nice if one could not show that dialog but provide that option via the method call.

Reproducible: Always

Will not be fixed on the 1.* stream.

EMF Compare 2 should (already) be better in terms of customization and API.
