application model changes via fragment at startup [message #1004686]

My RCP tries to install new plugins at startup following an external
configuration. These plugins are supposed to contribute to the
application model.
In Eclipse 3.x the RCP restarted the workbench after the installation.
In E4 I am trying to do the same but found no way. Starting the
installation of new plugins in a class hooked to the lifecycle is too
soon to close the workbench because the workbench is not created at this
time.
What I need is a way to get the newly added plugins involved during the
startup process or a way I get noticed when the workbench is created.

Any ideas?

Use a model processor: see the org.eclipse.e4.workbench.model extension point or the following page:
