There is no rule that non-handle-only methods must delegate their work to a body (if I understand you correctly). I think what's really important here is the distinction between "handle only" and "other" methods for model elements; contract rather than implementation details.

Well, not a rule, but the whole point of the framework is to separate the lightweight functionality from the heavier one. There is a cache for bodies, so implementing heavy things in the handle might lose some efficiency.

Using "throws CoreException" as a discriminator is a good idea. Thanks!
