Initialize toggle to true [message #40739]

I have a couple MenuContributions for a command whose handler implements
IElementUpdater to synchronize their isChecked state. I'm using the state
attribute of the command, specifying:

<state id="STYLE" class="org.eclipse.jface.commands.ToggleState" />

I understand ToggleSate is initialized to "false" but I need it
initialized to 'true', i.e. menu checked and button depressed. I found
the following indicating ":true" can be appended to the class name but it
doesn't work for me:

<state id="STYLE" class="org.eclipse.jface.commands.ToggleState:true" />

I'm using Eclipse3.4 fully updated. Can anyone shed some light on this
for me please?

Can a declared command of style "toggle" be declared "true"?

I too would be interested in hearing if there have been developments on
this. Anyone have any thoughts ? Maybe subclassing
org.eclipse.jface.commands.ToggleState and overriding setValue() ? Havent
tried this yet... Would prefer to do this declaratively if possible.
