I'm working my way through the Shapes example right now, and I can't
figure out why the models implement IPropertySource. I've never worked
with properties in Eclipse before, but it seems like Shapes sets up
Property descriptors for use in a property sheet, but I can't find
anywhere to actually view the property sheet.
Are these property descriptors used for some other purpose, or is the
Property Sheet just buried somewhere? If anyone could help me make
sense of this, I'd appreciate it.

It's used by the Eclipse properties view, EditPart checks your model to
see if it implements IPropertySource and if it does it adapts properly
to IPropertySource.class

Yes, it's for the property sheet. It does not come up by default when
running the example. Window > Show View > Properties
