Description

@laeubi

We already have two IPluginSourcePathLocator but both only look for a quick-win by the use of naming conventions.

If even with that nothing was found, we can (similar to m2e) go a step further and query external source:

  • We can search in all enabled repositories
  • We can use the Eclipse index
  • We can even think about define a source target platform or a list of repositories we will look at
  • ...

This cann improve the users experience in case of debugging without the need to download source bundles in advance.
