Hi Mat,
We've done something similar a while ago. An overview of the outcome is
presented in http://www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/cinema/GMFWizards2.htm .
Having a look in the source code of the following plugins:
https://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.gmt.eps ilon/trunk/plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.ewl.emf
and
https://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.gmt.eps ilon/trunk/plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.ewl.gmf
should answer most of your questions.
Cheers,
Dimitrios
