Try StatusManager.getManager().handle(status, StatusManager.SHOW). Usually,
it is not a good idea to open a modal dialog (error dialog or not) from deep
down in your code, because this will run the event loop and therefore any
asyncExecs that may be queued up. These asyncExecs could then change your
environment in drastic ways - for example, think about the case where the
update manager has finished installing new plug-ins and prompts you to
restart the workbench.
