Description Shawn Minto CLA 2011-09-28 20:04:07 EDT 
It would be nice to be able to install the latest Mylyn WikiText into Mylyn 3.6.2 to get some improvements, but currently, it is constrained to Mylyn 3.7.

This is going to cause breakage once we remove the provisional segments from packages in commons.ui which is planned for 3.7. We should revert the change at that point.

Yes, then we'll also need to update the version constraints in bundle dependencies.  

Should we want to provide backward-compatibility for provisional commands API, would it be sufficient to subclass as follows?  org.eclipse.mylyn.internal.provisional.commons.ui.commands.DeleteLineToBeginningHandler -> org.eclipse.mylyn.internal.commons.ui.commands.DeleteLineToBeginningHandler

From what I can see these are the only provisional APIs in use.

We'll keep the provisional ones around for a few weeks but they will be removed for the release otherwise this becomes very hard to manage.
