Description Chris McGee CLA 2014-01-15 08:34:08 EST 
When using a delegated UI for an orion.edit.command contribution the user is still able to navigate to different files (or even folders). However, the delegated UI is not informed that this event has occurred. It may return back a new selection or possibly text and that will get applied to the wrong buffer.

Ideally, the delegated UI contribution could specify to the editor that it is a modal UI in which case the background is greyed-out and disabled like Ctrl+H search dialog does. Otherwise, in a non-modal mode the delegated UI should receive events when navigation events occur and/or selection changes are made by the user.
