One of the reasons some folks feel that we do *not* need http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=98133 is because you can see the information about a .java file in the Navigator. As pointed out in the description of http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=98133, that does not work for some people. But if the Navigator is the only place we can get access to this information about a .java file, then the context menus should be the same as what we used to have when the Projects window supported expansion of a .java file. For example, in Milestone 7, a class's method has these entries on its context menu in the Navigator window: Go to Source Sort by Name Sort by Source Filters > In NetBeans 5.5, a class's method has these entries in its context menu in the Projects window: Open Delete Find Usages Refactor > Tools > Properties So as it stands right now, we're missing some context menu entries. What I really want is for http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=98133 to get fixed. But if that's not possible it would be great to at least have the context menu entries available in the Navigator.
