MenuManager is data on its widget none

Description Paul Webster CLA 2011-05-19 17:06:16 EDT 
The MenuManager should store itself in the menu widget it creates.  This follows the pattern used my the other ContributionItems, and will allow the manager to be found from its widget.

Is this needed to support the Eclipse 4.x compatibility story?

Yes, bug 332246 (a P1).  I've explored many options and this is the only way to get from the SWT Menu to something useful that first time.

+1 from me.
Comment 7 Remy Suen CLA 2011-05-20 08:53:55 EDT 
I am okay with this on the condition that the string be changed to be something like "org.eclipse.ui.internal.managerKey" to prevent any potential clashing with downstream clients of getData(String) [this late in the cycle].

Patch seems innocuous enough otherwise.
Comment 8 Eric Moffatt CLA 2011-05-20 09:59:27 EDT 
Looks fine to me but adopting something more like Remy's suggestion for the key string makes sense (even though I'd be willing to bet money it wouldn't be an issue as is we may as well make the chances even smaller...;-).

Released with a longer key.

Boris, I assume you did want to set the normal +review flag.
