I agree, that makes sense. 

Thanks a lot!

These bundles lived in the experimental CMake-support feature, so I guess only 
users that had that installed will be affected.
The only bundle that stores workbench preferences is o.e.c.jsoncdb.core which 
was formerly o.e.c.cmake.is.core.

Thanks Martin. I don't think we need to worry about migrating workbench preferences from old to new names, the N&N is a more than adequate place for that because it is experimental.
