I could not find any reference in the New and Noteworthy documents or even
in these newgroups to the fact that the Java problems are not shown now in
the tasks view but in the new problems view. It seems a very important
change that deserves some mention.

There was a good discussion on this issue in platform-ui-dev. Look at the
archives.

Yes IMHO.

This is what I wrote two years ago in the tools newsgroup:

> Why the Java errors and warnings are gathered in a tab pane that is named
> "Tasks"?

And some one responded:

> Because getting rid of errors and warnings by fixing them can be
considered
> a "task". Its like a "to do" item.

And I replied:

> perhaps the term "tasks" has been used to encourage a positive mind when
> developing with Eclipse, and ban negative terms like problems, errors or
> warnings. Perhaps better than "tasks" would be to use instead the term
> "solutions" or "opportunities for improvement". ;-)

I have to disagree :) Not with the idea of allowing the user to focus on
Tasks vs. Problems, but with the implementation of that requirement. You
can read the comments on it in Bugzilla
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=37974 and check out Randy's
suggestion which I find more appealing.

As a Problems-proponent, it might be useful to get your comments on the
matter in the bug report.
