Bug 15844 [Exception Handling] SelectionChange events and NPE
Build 20020508 Due to new global actions there are now more objects listening to selection changes send out by a JFace viewer. We now had the case that one of the listener generated a NPE. As a result all listeners registered after that one didn't receive the selection change event. StructuredViewers should be more fault tolorant to exceptions when informing listeners.
