Find Class Dialog [message #672599]

The class/interface search box that can be used to browse for super-classes when creating a new class is great. It's very fast and indexes everything. Is there a way to access the same (or similar) functionality without creating a new class? Often I want to open a class where I know the name, but it takes a while to browse through the package explorer to find it. Any ideas?

Thanks,
David Byrne
