Description Tom Houser CLA 2005-07-01 14:31:55 EDT
Apparently, if you have an actionSet action whose style="pulldown" and the 
action's associated class implements IWorkbenchWindowPulldownDelegate2, your 
plugin is always loaded at startup.  See 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=61681, which is marked as fixed 
because they just changed the cheatsheet plug-in to not use style="pulldown".  
They didn't fix the real bug.

The pertinent comments (about the real bug) are:

	https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=61681#c3
	https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=61681#c6

Looks like this fell through the cracks, wasn't fixed in 3.0/3.1 nor was the 
API updated to include a large/bold warning (as described in 61681 comment #6).

If this can't be fixed, it should at least be documented in both the actionSet 
extension point documentation and in the IWorkbenchWindowPulldownDelegate2 
javadoc.
