The Eclipse Help only describes how to declare and activate
cativities/capabilities.
But again, how can I deactivate an activity ?

Not knowing enough about activities, I did Ctrl+Shift+T on IActivity.
Then I pressed F4 to get the concrete implementations.
I visited the Activity.class. I looked at the "enabled" variable.
I selected the setEnabled method. I pressed Ctrl-Alt-H to get all the
callers.
Finally, I noticed that setEnabled is package private API an no public API
seems to lead to it.
The closest thing to a useful API I saw was in
ActivityPersistanceHelper.loadEnabledStates(...).
Concluding, to me it seems there is no public API to dynamically disable
an activity (AKA capability). I may be wrong.
When activities were just introduced, there was this little dialog
off "Window>" where you could explicitly enable/disable activities.
It seems to have disappeared now.

You should look at org.eclipse.ui.activities.IWorkbenchActivitySupport.
This interface contains setEnabledActivityIds(Set) which can be used
to alter the activity enablement state. An instancce of
IWorkbenchActivitySupport can be obtained from
IWorkbench.getActivitySupport().
Typical usage is as follows:
Set enabledActivities = new
HashSet(PlatformUI.getActivitySupport().getActivityManager() .getEnabledActivityIds());
// alter the set by adding or removing activity ids
PlatformUI.getActivitySupport().setEnabledActivityIds(enable dActivities);
