Description Sebastian Fuchs

Build Identifier: 

Request for an enhancement to provide a Property describing an EObject's Index in a Collection.
Showing the Position of an Item in a List, e.g. by an ObservableMapCellLabelProvider, is not as easy when it comes to changes in order of the collection. For instance invoking the MOVE-Command results in the need to update 2 items, which is not comfortable yet due to the lack of a corresponding Property. Therefore I propose to introduce such a Property.

Reproducible: Always

Nope the feature we need here would be to observe an items position inside a list where the above allows you to observe an item inside the list
