[udig-devel] why is the presence of some commands perspective dependent?

[Jesse Eichar]

RIght I do know the reason.  This is for configurability.  By default  
those action sets are disabled.  To add them you must add a  
PerspectiveExtension that adds them to your perspective.  Here's the  
XML snippet that adds them to the MapPerspective:

    <extension
          point="org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions">
       <perspectiveExtension
             targetID="net.refractions.udig.ui.mapPerspective">
          <actionSet id="net.refractions.udig.project.ui.LayerActions"/>
          <actionSet id="net.refractions.udig.project.ui.renameSet"/>
          <actionSet  
id="net.refractions.udig.project.ui.OpenProjectSet"/>
       </perspectiveExtension>
    </extension>

This is in the project.ui plugin.xml.  In that file the complete  
perspective extension is there that adds view and perspective  
shortcuts to the Window > Show View and Window > Open Perspective menus
