I've created a bug to track the dialog/wizard work:

Lars, We're pushing on this early so that we can provide the model 
elements in time for them to get some 'real' use. The expectation is that 
we would provide the simple skeletons and then review the model based on 
feedback from people who have *concrete* use cases based on their 
scenarios. I can only encourage the people asking for this extension to 
please *use it* and provide feedback...

I expect to see some rather creative mechanisms come up...;-). Once we 
have some concrete examples we will be in a much better position to decide 
what else is necessary. 

Note that if we don't receive any feedback we'll presume that these 
elements aren't really necessary right now and remove them...use them or 
lose them !

Onwards,
Eric

(This is so that MCompositePart will extend only one concrete type, namely 
MPart. In implementing split editors/views, Eric found that the 
MPart/MPartSashContainer ambiguity caused some problems.)

+1, this would help for simple editor input scenarios.

Would be nice to see a prototype how the new model elements would be use. 
I assume we would have modelService.show(dialog, modular) or something 
like that?_______________________________________________
