public interface IWorkbenchAdapter
This adapter interface provides visual presentation and hierarchical structure
for workbench elements, allowing them to be displayed in the UI
without having to know the concrete type of the element.
There is an associate label provider and content provider for showing
elements with a registered workbench adapter in JFace structured viewers.
