Description Joseph Marques CLA 2006-10-31 15:19:29 EST 
It would be great to have more complex control over what resources are shown with working sets.  Here are a few suggestions:

or(workingSet A, workingSet B) - elements that are in either set
not(workingSet A) - any element in the workspace that are not in the set

And when they are allowed to chain together, they can form very complex logic:

and(not(workingSet A), or(workingSet B, workingSet C))

The boolean expression of working sets can be saved as a named set itself, and then enabled / disabled just like any other set.

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.
