Description Irum Godil

org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.SaveAsDialog implementation is not flexible to just show the selected project in the workspace. It currently shows all the projects in the workspace.

However, in some use instances of the dialog, the user may only want to allow selection inside the current project. This is currently not possible. 

It would be very useful if there was some filtering mechanism or some API to select the projects the user wants to show in the Save Dialog.

I think this should go to Tod since SaveAsDialog is an IDE dialog.  Tod, correct me if I'm wrong...

How would you define the "selected" or "current" project? The owning IProject of an editor's input (if applicable like the case of a typical IFileEditorInput's IFile's containing IProject?)?

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.
