Declare an extension as optional? [message #596614]

Hey all,

i have an UML profile (don't panic, it is no UML-specific questions),
which i want to reuse for several IDE's (Papyrus, RSM, etc.), but every
IDE has its own internal registration mechanism via an Extension Point.

Is it possible to declare in one plugin, several extension and set these
extensions to a kind of "optional"? The problem is, that if the required
plugin was not found in the environment, the whole plugin will not be
registered! But, i didn't want to duplicate the Profile/Resource/What
ever for every new IDE.

Thanks a lot
Timothy
