I've been thinking...
We need two views instead of the current WOLips Navigator.
Generally I think that eclipse is missing a Project View (1 project).
We’re interested in a specific kind of projects – WebObjects projects.
We should have a WOProject View.
Then I think we need (or I would like) a WOComponent View. Perhaps
similar to the current Outline View, but displaying the collective
information of the 5 files. In the end this view should allow you to
refactor, not only the java code, but bindings, api ...
The 3 points below still apply.
What do you think?
