Hi,
thanks for your insightful input. This type of feedback is very helpful to
streamline workflows in the tooling and improve the UI experience.
The particular issue that you raised was addressed in the 3.7 release. The
query dialog now shows a message in the header when an email address is
entered but none of the checkboxes are selected. More details are on this
bug:
368295: all results returned when querying for user but not specifying
the fields to search
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=368295
Please feel free to open tasks in our Bugzilla at any time if you notice
shortcomings in the UI design.
