Adding ContributionItem directly to Coolbar causes all Separators to be invisible. [message #332940]

After adding a toolbarManager directly to the Coolbar causes all the
Separators in the all toolbars to go invisible. they are still there,
there's still an extra space but they are not visible.

simply doing the following code causes the issue... what am i doing wrong?

CoolBarManager coolBarManager = ( (WorkbenchWindow) window
).getCoolBarManager();

newToolbarManager = new ToolBarManager2();

ToolBarContributionItem tbci = new
ToolBarContributionItem2(newToolbarManager, element.getId());

coolBarManager.insertAfter( element.getId(), tbci );

coolBarManager.markDirty();

((WorkbenchWindow)window).updateActionBars();

Wow, this is so the opposite of supported :-)

If your tbci id is element.getId(), then how can you
insertAfter(element.getId, ...) ? What if you pick an ID in the coolbar
that already exists?
