Description Chandra Poluru CLA 2007-03-01 11:10:37 EST 
Its very handy if we have the ability to save and load a group of windows or editors. When we are working on different features, we might want to restore all the windows related to a particular feature, with out the need to remember all the related files. This is really very helpful for support / bug fix developers, as they often work on multiple bugs/features simultaneously or going to rework on some features as they might have been reopened or qa failed.

Its really very useful feature tha can be found in Maxthon browser, may not a common feature in IDEs. When its useful, why not we bring it to IDEs.

I believe Mylyn will do what you wish. It allows you to associate editors and the context of your workbench with a particular task that you are working on.

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.
