[platform-dev] Attention Perspective Layout owners


Since views now have a new collapsing feature (i.e you can collapse the contents of a view and leave only the tab and a thin bar showing), I wanted to suggest that you re-visit your perspective layout to consider taking advantage of this where possible.

Here are some examples:

Good:
1) In the Java perspective default layout, if I select the collapse (looks like a window minimize icon on the top right of any stack of views), it becomes thin and the outline view and editor grow to take up the space.  This is a good use of this feature.

Could improve<g>:
2) In the Debug perspective default layout, if I collapse the Breakpoints view, unfortunately the Outline view does not grow to take up the space as they are not in the same column.  Minor changes to the layout might be able to fix this.

thanks
