Hi,

personally, I think the spies are rather targeted for RCP (Eclipse 4 Application Platform) developers, as most IDE plugin developers still use the 3.x API. Therefore, I would find it a little more consistent to move them to the same place as the model editor, which is platform. Also the people working on this, are probably very overlapping with the people working on the model editor and at least the model spy also directly uses the model editor. However, I do not have a strong opinion about this and I am also fine with moving it to PDE, as it is somehow "advanced tooling".

Best regards

Jonas

    I'd say it's mostly a matter of target. Despite Model Editor
    *might* be useful for plain users, those spies only target plugin
    developers AFAIK, to they're most consistent being part of PDE.
