Will UI auto adjust itself? [message #362]

Hi everybody,

I mean that common used commands/items should present to the user in
more aggressive way and do not hide among other not so very often used
options.
Typically only 20% features makes 80% of work ;-).

Similar functionality exists in Windows (top used programs), in mail
clients (most contacted people) etc.

Why not to move that functionality to Eclipse UI?

I have opened a bug against Mylyn, but that is not in their scope...

What do you think, e4 Team?

I guess you used the "dog food" that already does this in E3 to some
extent ?;-)

It's called Mylyn. Of course it has not been used to such extent by most
projects, but generally speaking what you see when you work in a
TaskContext with Mylyn is exactly that. Items you don't consider
important enough for your current task hide until you enable them again
or switch to another task.
