Modeling the Workbench and the Things in It

  • DOM/CSS
    • we need a simple uniform model API that can be styled much like is possible DOM and CSS
  • Provider style API
    • we need some type of uniform API for impossing a view structure on a model instance, i.e., a unification of ILabelProvider, IContentProvider, IFontProvider, and so on.
  • Event Bus
    • we need to make it easier to register listeners in a central location
  • Commands
    • we need a uniform mechanism for changing state
  • Tools for Modeling
    • we need high level tools to make it easy to develop models
  • Data binding
    • we need a mechanism for mapping a model of the data onto a model of the user interface
  • Constraints
    • we need ways of enforcing consistency
