Thanks for the tip Michael.
As my editor is a multi page form editor, I would have liked the
opportunity to display a "Synchronize with Reporitory..." action in a
part, similar to the Dependency Analysis part of Manifest editor. I
believe this is not possible in a repository provider agnostic way, I
"only" get popup menu contribution.
Anyway, your help was greatly appreciated.
