Description Michael Skubowius CLA 2002-06-19 12:02:28 EDT 
The filtering possibilities for editors defined in the extension point
org.eclipse.ui.editors are not sufficient. You can only filter by
file extension or the complete filename. We need different editors for
XML files in our application. We would like to open one editor for
all XML files which are placed in directory "A", another editor for all
files in directory "B" and so on...
A filter which filters things like "*/A/*.xml" would be great...!

You can more narrowly define editor openings via content type now.  Please reopen if this is insufficient.
