Although many standard designed patterns are used, this is not covered in 
any of the
documentation.

Azad Bolour's article "Notes on the Eclipse Plug-in Architecture" has some 
pattern stuff
 
http://eclipse.org/articles/Article-Plug-in-architecture/plugin_architecture.html

as will Kent Beck and Erich Gamma's book "Contributing to Eclipse: 
Principles, Patterns, and Plugins"
due out this fall.
