Create an API to add a quickfix to the COBOL editor

There are custom makros in the COBOL code. The preprocessor scanning the code finds a makro that is not used correctly. An easy fix is available. The user would expect a marking and a quickfix to correct the error. But at the moment (version 9.1) there is no way to add a quickfix to the editor. It is possible to create a eclipse quickfix similar to the JAVA editor and that fix is presented and working in all the views except the editor.

Please add this fix to the COBOL editor.

This rfe is about errors in makros. Somethin similar is described in rfe 77836 that is about better usage of makros.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us;We feel this is a valid requirement but delivery within the RFE 2 year window is not likely. Please resubmit in 12-18 months for reconsideration if still valid.
    Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
