Code Review
This pull request introduces new UI components and functionality related to an 'Exit' dialog and a 'Playground' part, including a Google Maps integration. It also refactors the application's menu structure and adds the Eclipse Nebula 'Chips' widget. The changes involve updates to OSGi manifests, build properties, E4 application model (.e4xmi), and new Java classes for dialogs, handlers, and UI processors. Overall, the changes are well-structured and implement the intended features. However, there are a few areas for improvement, particularly regarding error handling and robustness in menu item identification.

The current approach of checking element.getElementId().contains("exit") to remove the old exit menu entry is fragile. If another menu item's ID unexpectedly contains "exit", it could be removed unintentionally. It's more robust to match the exact elementId of the original exit menu item, which is org.eclipse.ui.file.exit as defined in Application.e4xmi.

The id="id1" for the extension is generic. It's a good practice to use more descriptive IDs to prevent potential conflicts and improve readability, especially in larger applications or when integrating with other plugins. Consider using a naming convention like com.vogella.tasks.ui.contribute.menuprocessor.extension.
| id="id1" | |
| id="com.vogella.tasks.ui.contribute.menuprocessor.extension" |

Using e1.printStackTrace(); is generally not recommended in production code as it can expose sensitive information and doesn't provide structured logging. Consider replacing this with a proper logging mechanism (e.g., SLF4J, Log4j) or displaying a user-friendly error message.
// Log the exception properly or display a user-friendly error
// Logger.error("Failed to encode city name for URL", e1);
// MessageDialog.openError(parent.getShell(), "Encoding Error", "Failed to encode city name.");

Code Review
This pull request updates the Tycho version to 5.0.0, introduces a new contribution to the file menu for exiting with a confirmation dialog, and significantly refactors the "Playground" part to demonstrate a map search feature. The changes are substantial. My review has identified a critical issue in pom.xml where merge conflicts appear to have been incorrectly resolved. Additionally, I've provided several suggestions to improve code quality, such as simplifying code with modern Java features, improving robustness, and preparing the code for internationalization by externalizing hardcoded strings. Please address the critical issue in pom.xml and consider the other suggestions for improvement.

The extension ID id1 is very generic. It's a best practice to use a more descriptive and unique ID, typically prefixed with the bundle's symbolic name, to avoid potential conflicts with other plugins. For example: com.vogella.tasks.ui.contribute.modelprocessor.menu.
| id="id1" | |
| id="com.vogella.tasks.ui.contribute.modelprocessor.menu" |

It's good practice to provide a title for a dialog window to give users context. You can override the configureShell method to set the title. The title string should also be externalized for internationalization.
@Inject
public ExitDialog(@Named(IServiceConstants.
ACTIVE_SHELL) Shell shell) {
super(shell);
}
@Override
protected void configureShell(Shell newShell) {
super.configureShell(newShell);
newShell.setText("Confirm Exit"); // Should be externalized
}| label.setText("Closing this application may result in data loss. " | ||
| + "Are you sure you want that?"); |

The dialog message is hardcoded. For applications that might need to be translated, it's a best practice to externalize strings into a properties file and load them using Eclipse's NLS (National Language Support) mechanism.

| } | ||
| } | ||
| } | ||

The logic for removing menu elements can be significantly simplified by using removeIf with a lambda expression. This makes the code more concise and readable.
menu.getChildren().removeIf(element -> element.getElementId() != null && element.getElementId().contains("exit"));|

The label "Another Exit" is hardcoded. For applications that might need to be translated into other languages, it's a best practice to externalize strings into a properties file and load them using Eclipse's NLS (National Language Support) mechanism.

Hardcoding the bundle symbolic name com.vogella.tasks.ui.contribute makes the code fragile. If the bundle name is changed in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, this code will break. It's better to define the bundle ID as a constant, for example in a dedicated constants class or at the top of this class, and reuse it here.

It's generally safer to get the Display instance from a widget (e.g., parent.getDisplay()) rather than using Display.getDefault(). Display.getDefault() returns null if the calling thread is not a UI thread, which could lead to a NullPointerException. Using parent.getDisplay() is more robust.
| chip1.setChipsBackground(Display.getDefault().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED)); | |

The try-catch block for UnsupportedEncodingException can be avoided. Since you are using Java 21, you can use URLEncoder.encode(String, Charset) with StandardCharsets.UTF_8. This version of the method does not throw a checked exception, which simplifies the code. Also, e1.printStackTrace() is generally discouraged in favor of proper logging.

| Text text = new Text(comp, SWT.SEARCH | SWT.CANCEL | SWT.ICON_SEARCH | SWT.BORDER); | ||
| text.setMessage("Search"); |

The message "Search" is hardcoded. For applications that might need to be translated, it's a best practice to externalize strings into a properties file and load them using Eclipse's NLS (National Language Support) mechanism.
