- Remove redundant dependencies (i.e., those, that are already contained and re-exported by the actual dependencies)

- getAnnotation(): Wrap creation of new Annotation into command since this method might easily be called from a context that cannot directly manipulate the model (e.g., from the GUI context)

AnnotationUtils: Add TODO to remove workaround that should be no longer required after IDE dev tools update.

Add <T extends IAnnotatedSpecification> T getAnnotation(IModelElement modelElement, Class<T> clazz),

a method to safely obtain an annotation for a given modelElement (and to create it, if it does not exist yet).
refs 1841

a method to determines the {@link EClass} corresponding to a give {@code clazz} (typically the interface for the generated implementation class of an Ecore meta-model).

- Show model element name in tool tip (useful,  if name is not visible due to scrolling to the right)
refs 1841

  - Crash when setting an annotation type based filter
  - Missing updates for filters that depend on the currently selected model element
refs 1841

  - Move label provider to dedicated package
  - Move generic annotation view to dedicated package
  - Move inner classes of GenericAnnotationView to separate classes (filter support in dedicated package)
- Small documentation updates
- No functional change

- Performance optimization: Prevent reconstruction of identical column set (e.g., when only the selection or a value in the model is changed)
refs 1841

 - Cache annotation entries the different root elements. The cache for a given root element is invalidated when model elements are added to / removed from the structure beneath it.
 - Avoid superfluous updates:
   - Re-selection of a model element
   - ADD events for annotation objects. These are a caused by the addition of a model element which already triggers an ADD event.

Extends the Derived annotation, such that element-specfic values can be returned; Useful for aggregate annotations.

- Fix bug that icon faking the native widget is not hidden when the actual widget is shown for editing

- Remove NOP override of setAnnotationValue()

- Adds support for checkboxes in the TableViewer (of the annotations). Still needs visual improvements.
- Modifies the GenericAnnotationView to support the checkbox-editing. 

- Ensure that currently selected model element is visible in table view (the change of the selection can be triggered in an external editor, e.g. the model navigator)
refs 1841,2137

- getValues(): cache AnnotationEntry list returned for given model element, significantly improving the performance of the AnnotationView for larger model. The view makes extensive use of this method from its update() method.

- Change semantics of SUB_MODEL scope declaration to also include the element to which the annotation is attached
- Preserve the current behavior (current element is not included) in STRICT_SUB_MODEL
refs 1841

- Cache column width (possibly manually adjusted by the user)

  - Broken after integration of EReference support since setting of values no longer defaults to String initializers)
  - Hence, also override doSetValue(AnnotationEntry, Object).
