Hi all

With version 3.0 SWT table and tabletree will have the possibility to set foreground and background colors per cell. This has been a request from my customers for a long time.

Would you please update the IColorProvider and Viewers to reflect this in JFace?

Currently, if the viewer's LabelProvider implements IColorProvider, the getForeground(Object) and getBackground(Object) is called for each element by the doUpdateItem methods. I would propose a supplement to this, with the index. Will this be in for Eclipse 3.0? It's very important for me and I would say that JFace would benefit from this change.

Kind regards,
