Created attachment 190400 [details] Schema that exhibits problem The plug-in manifest editor is corrupting the plugin.xml when changing an element attribute. This is difficult to repeat, but I'm seeing the problem quite frequently. It usually occurs when I add an extension, add an element to the extension, then change one of the element attributes. At this point, I see two copies of the element in the plugin.xml, one with the old attribute and one with the new. Removing the extension at this point causes bad things to happen to the plugin.xml as the editor seems to be out of sync with the source. I've attached a schema that exhibits the problem frequently, though I have also seen it with other extension points.
