Description Lars Vogel CLA 2018-01-16 12:10:39 EST
We have a sub-menu Windows -> Navigate. I suggest to move it to the "Navigate" top-level menu.

+1

And be named how? Do you want a "Navigate->Navigation" sub-menu? That would look strange.

"Navigate->Window" might just work. The sub-menu contains commands that all and exclusively relate to navigation among Eclipse UI elements, independent of their content. The existing items in the top-level "Navigate" menu are mostly about content-related navigation (editor or project or workspace content).

Note that the constants in IWorkbenchCommandConstants for these commands all start with "WINDOW_".

It looks like every letter of "Window" is already in use.(for mnemonics)
How about "Window Sho&rtcuts"? "r" doesn't seem to be taken.

-1 from me. 'Navigate' and 'Navigation' are for different actions.
