Probably a stupid question: can one enable automatic validation?

When the validation fails (as part of the .gmfgen generation), ones
currently has to to do a lengthy manual tree search like procedure to
figure out, where and which element one has got wrong. It would be cute,
if the validation would automatically directly anotate or "decorate" any
offending line in the treeview so that one would be aware that
something's fishy right away.

But I guess that's already on your to do list, isn't it?

Hi Michael,

If validation fails (as part of the .gmfgen generation) you can execute
GMFGen Editor/Validate or GMFMap Editor/Validate action.
Both produce validation markers in the 'Problems View' which allow to
navigate to the affected elements in the model tree view.

Regards,
/Radek
