Gene,
I think that it is definitely worth looking into. I started out looking
at it simply because I wanted to unify the pop-up menus with the package and
navigator views ... which started to lead me down this route. I think that
you will find that much of the current structure of the CView already fits
into the IResourceNavigator/ResourceNavigator type of framework simply
because
that is where Alain grafted some missing components from. I recognize that
with 3.0 there are going to be some significant improvements, but the 3.0
release is almost a year out and it is worth looking at improving this
now (IMHO).
Thanks,
Thomas
