Description Susan McCourt CLA 2011-04-07 17:09:37 EDT 
We use a lightweight edit popup in several cases now in the UI:
- edit favorites
- add a favorite by typing a URL

And I want to use it in other places such as renaming files, collecting file and folder names inline, etc.

We should take the existing code and make it reusable (even if it's just a utility method).  The kinds of things we want to control are:

- initial text (if any)
- the dom element it is placed after
- whether the referenced element should be hidden while box is up
- function to call when the string is collected

fixed.  API is

eclipse.util.getUserText(textBoxId, refNode, shouldHideRefNode, 
    initialText, onComplete, /* optional */ onEditDestroy)
