Re: [udig-devel] why is the presence of some commands perspective depend

[Jody Garnett <jgarnett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a consequence of the "Eclipse House Rules" specifically the 
"other rule".
- http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/DEV/Eclipse+House+Rules

When defining a perspective you can list the "preferred options" and 
then have an "Other..." option to bring up a dialog to choose the rest. 
Sounds like we are "missing" the Other option in your menu. The idea is 
you should be able to do anything from any perspective; how many steps 
that takes is up to the perspective.
