Description Gabriel Klein CLA 2006-06-30 20:02:32 EDT 
I work with multiple workspace.
Each of these workspace represents a "release" of our applications.

For exemple I have "MyApplication Release 1.5 - Geneva", then "MyApplication Release 2.0 - Zurich", then "MyApplication Release 3.0 - Paris".

Sometime when I fix a bug on the release 1.5, I have to fix this bug on release 2.0 and 3.0. So I work with multiple instances of Eclipse open (and with a similar layout).

It would be nice to have a way to differentiate these differents layout. For exemple in the "title of the windows", a "logo" that is included in the workspace configuration, a "title" in the background of the Navigator or Explorer windows.

Similar but different to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=131566

For now, the only feature addressing this is the -showLocation command line argument.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
