Error description
Abstract: Attempt to cancel the Snippet Import function will result in an NPE written to the workspace log. Problem: You are importing a new snippet, and you decide to cancel the operation.

For more technical information, see: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=337433 Local fix: No workaround available, as the NPE is benign and can be ignored.
