[Bug] Extended properties on nested sequences are silently discarded [message #542111]

Hi all,

I seem to have run into a bug when trying to set extended properties on
sequences that are nested inside other sequences. Basically, the add()
method is called with the unwrapped sequence, so the sequence gets a plain
old List. When it tries to add an extended property, it wraps the object,
adds the property and then - poof - discards the wrapper, so we lose the
property.

I've reported the problem to Bugzilla, since it looks to be a complex issue:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=317753

I've attached a sample EOL script and two different patches with two ways in
which the problem can be solved. I would really appreciate it if someone had
a look at them: I'm not sure which approach would be best.

Cheers,
Antonio
