I thought this may of been set by the uDig configuration file (cannot remember
the name of it; but it is the file people who build their own RCP applications
use to customise how uDig behaves).
But yes I would prefer a preference setting (under user control; although I can
understand why an RCP developer may want to lock down the behaviour for their
application?)
