Description Curtis Windatt

2011-07-07 12:36:45 EDT

It has been deprecated since 3.2.  The deprecation comment indicates that the point must not be used.  It isn't clear if there is any need for our extensions anymore.

PDE UI is also using deprecated action extensions that we can look at updating.

The workaround is apparently still necessary...
