Non-persistent way to "Open With -> System Editor"? [message #975601]

Hi,

When I right-click a file in Package Explorer, then "Open With -> System Editor", Eclipse apparently saves my preference, so that next time I double click that file in Package Explorer, it again opens in the System Editor instead of the Default (Text) Editor.

Is there a way to open a file in the System Editor without having it set as a persistent preference?

Being able to do it as a one-off through a keyboard-shortcut would be the best.

Thanks, D.
