Use Xtend instead of Java in more places in the generated DSL implementation [message #902771]

Hi,

are there any plans to make more use of Xtend instead of Java for the typical DSL infrastructure classes such as scope and completion providers? For some of the classes, we can turn off generation of the respective stub via a switch in GenerateMyLanguage.mwe, but not all generator fragments support this switch. Of course, the workaround here is to just create an Xtend class and register it in the proper runtime / UI module. However, it would be awesome to be able to use Xtend out-of-the-box.

Cheers,
Peter
