/**
18
 * A model-based EditPolicy for <i>components within a </i>container</i>. A
19
 * model-based EditPolicy only knows about the host's model and the basic
20
 * operations it supports. A <i>component</i> is anything that is inside a
21
 * container. By default, ComponentEditPolicy understands being DELETEd from its
22
 * container, and being ORPHANed from its container. Subclasses can add support
23
 * to handle additional behavior specific to the model.
24
 * <P>
25
 * ORPHAN is forwarded to the <i>parent</i> EditPart for it to handle.
26
 * <P>
27
 * DELETE is also forwarded to the <i>parent</i> EditPart, but subclasses may
28
 * also contribute to the delete by overriding
29
 * {@link #createDeleteCommand(GroupRequest)}.
30
 * <P>
31
 * This EditPolicy is not a
32
 * {@link org.eclipse.gef.editpolicies.GraphicalEditPolicy}, and should not be
33
 * used to show feedback or interact with the host's visuals in any way.
34
 * <P>
35
 * This EditPolicy should not be used with
36
 * {@link org.eclipse.gef.ConnectionEditPart}. Connections do not really have a
37
 * parent; use {@link ConnectionEditPolicy}.
