This is a very good use-case, and we should handle it better as part of
our "usability" Theme in 3.1.
I think we have had similar requests before, and if I'm not mistaken
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=143503 was addressed as
part of these requests. Please check if that helps you.
If not, please file an enhancement request in bugzilla, with [usability]
tag in the Summary, explaining your case.
Cheers,
