How to have package explorer unfold everything JUST to the level of filenames [message #1495996]

When I open up eclipse I have to reopen every package to see the full list of files. There is a shortcut to "unfold" entire subtrees of such hierarchies, but this results in me seeing every class and method in every file, which is far far too much information.

I just want the unfolding to stop at the level of files. Like so:

My Project
    source
        a.b.c.packagename
            One.java
            Two.java
            Three.java
        a.b.c.otherpackagename
            Four.java    
            Five.java

Can I either:

1. Quickly open the project tree so it unfolds everything only to the source file level (and doesn't proceed to show me the classes and other contents of the file in the tree).

or

2. Have the package view remember precisely how far I've previously unfolded the tree? Then I could do it once and forget about it.

If such shortcut exists then I am also interested in knowing that. Looks a good option to me ..

I may have to resort to writing my own addon for this. This is silly. I'm having a hard time believing that this doesn't exist.

It doesn't make sense for a world-class IDE to have neither

1. a memory of what's previously been unfolded
(nor)
2. a shortcut to unfold everything to a specific level
