Motivation
When editing a workflow, it would be great to have a view showing some documentation.
For instance, when an activity is selected the view could display a description of the activity as well as an explanation of its inputs and outputs.
This is not that useful right now since a workflow can only contain the activities defined by its creator, but it will definitely be valuable when catalogs will be available.
Implementation
A generic e4 view which react to specific events. Maybe with an associated metamodel or set of interfaces. Or rely on Eclipse adapters?
The ISelectionService is notified when the selection changes within a Sirius diagram editor. This information can be used to retrieve the activity being selected.
