Description Nobody - feel free to take it CLA 2011-10-27 09:04:57 EDT 
I would like to extend the existing Workbench model editor, through another
plug-in, to add new items. 
The problem is that the registerVirtualEditor method of the ModelEditor class
is private, like the virtualEditors map which hasn't any getter.

Is it planned to make this method or this variable public or protected to make
the extension possible?

There is an extension point (org.eclipse.e4.tools.emf.ui.editors.exsd) for that, so there's not need to subclass.
