Description Tobias Oberlies

It is close to impossible find the org.eclipse.equinox.executable feature by its name "Eclipse Platform Launchers". Finding features by name is for example needed in the PDE target definition editor.

Would it be possible to have the word "executable" in the feature name, e.g. "Eclipse Platform Launcher Executables"?

I found the following source location for the exectuable feature:  http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/viewvc.cgi/org.eclipse.equinox/framework/bundles/org.eclipse.equinox.executable/feature.properties?view=markup&revision=1.10&root=RT_Project

Seems reasonable.

We have moved to git.  The source is now here:

Forgot to mention: patch is formatted for @git am@; I don't know if it can be applied with egit.
