1. Turn on to show warnings about unused parameters
You get warnings like 'argument 'action' is never read'
public void run(IAction action) {
  new BuildPathDialog().open();
}

As 'run' is implementing 'run' from 'IAction', this warning is not very helpful.
Worse, enabling the feature leads to hundereds of such warnings for a project. 
I really would like to have this enabled so it would be great if either no 
warning is issued for parameters of overriding/implementing methods or it can 
be configured with an extra checkbox.
