Description Thomas Watson CLA 2011-09-01 17:01:42 EDT 
According to the javadoc for RegionFiler.VISIBLE_BUNDLE_NAMESPACE the attribute bundle-symbolic-name should be used to match the symbolic name for filters in this namespace.  The implementation actually uses the attribute RegionFiler.VISIBLE_BUNDLE_NAMESPACE (org.eclipse.equinox.allow.bundle).

We need to fix this to at least also check for the bundle-symbolic-name attribute in the filter.  For now we can add the BSN value under both attributes to match against the filter.  This allows us to support the bundle-symbolic-name attribute while also preserving the old behavior incase someone is using the org.eclipse.equinox.allow.bundle in their filters.
