When extending WorkspaceProjectState to include visibility of other projects based on manifest files (these are specific to the domain language) I found that I have to make a copy of the AbstractAllContainerState#resourceChanged method to be able to hook it with a check if a manifest file has been modified. (If I do not override, I need to interpret the same change again, and even perform an initialization even if the logic in AbstractAllContainerState has done so already.

Adding a method such as:
protected boolean doesThisDeltaRequireClear(IResourceDelta delta) { return false; }
and hooking it on line 217, after a check has been made if the delta is a Project description change, would be an improvement. It would do something like:

if(doesThisDeltaRequireClear(delta)) { clear.set(Boolean.TRUE); return false; }
