Contributing RulerDoubleClick action to nested text editor [message #335863]

I have a code editor nested in a FormEditor. I want to enable
double-click -> toggle breakpoint.

In a non-multipage editor, it seems that I could do this using
o.e.ui.editorActions, specifying the targetID to match the editor ID.
Then my action would declare its action ID as RulerDoubleClick. But in
the nested case, I can't really specify the nested editor ID.

I'm able to register the ToggleBreakpointAction programmatically, but
I'd prefer not to have to touch the nested editor, or put a debug.ui
dependency on it.

Any suggestions on how to contribute this action from my debug plugin,
declaratively or otherwise?

Cheers
Ben

Did you try it?

I did. AbstractTextEditor#findContributedAction(..) is checking to make
sure the targetID matches the site ID. MultiPageEditorSite always
answers an empty ID.
