| From the 2.1 plan: <em>"Provide user preferences. It should be possible |
| to store user preferences that are not specific to a workspace separate |
| from the workspace, so that they can be used in any workspace. [Platform |
| Core, Platform UI] [Themes: User experience; Rich client platform]" |
| (bug <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=36965">36965</a>)</em> |
| <p> From the 3.0 plan: <em> "The way that Eclipse deals with preferences |
| should be improved. The workbench presentation of preferences generally |
| uses a component-oriented hierarchy, which is not always the best choice |
| for users. The UI should present preferences in such a way that users |
| can readily discover them. Some preference settings have scopes (e.g., |
| workspace-wide vs. per project). The UI should help the user to visualize |
| these scopes. For team-wide uniformity, some preferences settings (e.g., |
| compiler options) need to be shared (or imposed) across teams. The UI |
| should also facilitate this. [Platform Core; Platform UI; Text; JDT UI; |
| JDT Core]" (bug <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=71124">71124</a>) |
