Currently, Eclipse shows java file name in java editor title. But it would be much more useful to show class name, not file name. Let's say, I have java file with one top level class and several inner classes. And I want to open an editor for each class. It makes no sense to see only file name, because I don't remember in what file what inner class resides. To sum up: separate editor for the separate class. Is it possible to make this feature? Or is it already present or is there any plugin that makes it possible?

You don't have to look through the tabs: simply use 'Open Type'
(Ctrl+Shift+T).
