Description Mark Addleman

I've found that my favorite way to work with Eclipse is to have several Java 
type hierarchy perspectives open and I use F4 to quickly move between them.  
I'd to see indicators in the window icons if the class has compile errors.  
This is especially useful as I scan the list of open windows in the Windows 
start bar.

This would make sense. The icon is managed by the Platform UI and I'm not sure
whether there is API to change the window icon dynamically.
Moving to Platform UI for advise.

We are not going to be able to get to this enhancement for the 2.0 release. 
Consider as a post 2.0 enhancment.
