How to show my own deletion redo/undo label? [message #169482]

The DeleteAction#createDeleteCommand goes through the objects and add the
command to the CompoundCommand. It uses the CompoundCommand even if there
is only one Object selected. That CompoundCommand uses the
GEFMessage.DeleteAction_ActionDeleteCommandName ("Delete") as the label.

My command has the "Delete my shape" label set. But the CompoundCommand
does not take it and my label cannot be shown. The solution I think of is
creating my own DeleteAction and override the createDeleteCommand. In that
case, I can show my custom label even for multiple selection/deletion.

Is there any other way to show my custom label?

Your approach sounds fine. Make sure you register your DeleteAction with
the editor's action registry (thus, overriding the default one) in the
createActions() method.
