Interface IEditorMatchingStrategy

public interface IEditorMatchingStrategy
An editor matching strategy allows editor extensions to provide their own
algorithm for matching the input of an open editor of that type to a
given editor input. This is used to find a matching editor during
IWorkbenchPage.openEditor(IEditorInput, String, boolean) and
IWorkbenchPage.findEditor(IEditorInput).

IEditorReference editorRef,
IEditorInput input)

and try to reject it early before calling IEditorReference.getEditorInput(),
since that method may be expensive.
