Martin,

I am pretty sure there is some code in JDT that handles this case already.
When I open a workspace created with the EPP (with code recommenders)
version of eclipse in the SDK (without recommenders) on the first time I do
a Java autocomplete I get a popup recommending I reset completion
preference defaults.

Perhaps one of the JDT folk can confirm that this is indeed the case that
is being covered.



Thanks,
Jonah
