Currently if a diagram defines edge creation tool(s) that can be applied between two diagram elements E1 and E2, the end-user has to decide beforehand which tool to select from the palette to create the edge. It should be possible to provide a generic edge creation tool which works the other way around: * select the source; * select the target; * if there is a single edge creation tool applicable between those, find it and invoke it; * if there are multiple possibilities, open a small UI (context menu or text field with completion) directly on the diagram to allow the user to chose which which one to apply. This already exists in slightly different forms for example in Obeo SmartEA and Talend Studio.

See the related bugzillas about the remaining work.
It seems the tool does not respect the coordinates where the user clicked on the source and edge elements.
