- 4 utility methods in ZoomUiUtils are now delegating to utility methods in ZoomUtils which unifies code paths an helps to avoid future issues (handles FIXME).
- Correct a typo in the PointStaticImpl class which led to a wrong method call.
- Removed invalid TODO in PointStaticImpl.

- Add and register {@link RemoveDuplicatedAnnotationsMigrationProvider} that removes duplicated {@link IAnnotatedSpecification}s from a model. These have been observed for a couple of models and might indicate an internal problem.

- Add MigrationUtils: Utility methods for implementation of drop-in replacement migrations of (sub-types of) types defined in org.fortiss.tooling.base.

refs 2449

- Introduce a separate base class for composing IModelElements. It manages (among other things) the instantiation of annotations.
- Let HierarchicElementCompositorBase inherit from the newly created base class for IModelElements.

refs 2228

Added a comment in ObjectAwareServiceBase#getRegisteredHandlers stating that this method should be changed if the behavior (from AnntotationValueService) is reused in the future.

- If the creation of new annotations should be wrapped into a command, but the annotation already exists, avoid the usage of a command and just directly return the (already existing) annotation.
- This avoids superfluous model modifications (i.e., the project marked dirty and requires saving)
refs 2369

- When inserting copies of objects as a result of a copy&paste operation, the inserted model elements is shifted by an offset. This gives visual feedback to the user that the paste operation has actually been performed.
- Notes:
 + Some model types are not handled yet (see ticket)
 + Although maybe an obvious approach, this feature cannot be implemented as a method in HierarchicElementCompositorBase:
   o It is not the base class of all affected compositors
   o HierarchicElementCompositorBase resides in org.fortiss.tooling.base, where as the required methods for detailing with layout information are in org.fortiss.tooling.base.ui

- Add IAnnotationValueProvider.isHidden() that allows to hide annotations from any view (useful for internal attributes that should not be exposed to the user). Default = false
- Extend AnnotationEntry and AnnotationFilter accordingly

- Prevent pollution of AnnotationEntry <-> IModelElement cache via instantiateAnnotations(final IModelElement element) (which might be invoked from model transformations). I.e., the cache is only updated, when the AnnotationEntries are queried from the GUI context.
- In case further measures need to be taken to limit the size of the AnnotationEntry <-> IModelElement cache, <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2941283/java-fixed-memory-map> might be a good starting point
