Hi Josh
Have a look at the EPC plugin (by the University of Augsburg) :
in the CVS, at org.eclipse.jwt/we/jwt-we-plugins/jwt-we-view-epc
In addition to providing a customized view with custom figures and icons
that have a completely different outlook from the default one, it
provides an additional "EPCEvent" workflow model element that should
show you how to add your own.
I wouldn't advise you to change the existing model for fear of breaking
things, but you can change the text that is displayed for a given model
element in the plugin.properties (ex. Action -> Flow). As shown in the
EPC View sample, you can also change and extend a lot of other things
(1), including adding new model elements by subclassing or using EMF
Aspect-like extensions that we provide :
(1) http://wiki.eclipse.org/JWT_Extensions
(2) http://wiki.eclipse.org/JWT_Metamodel_Extension
