Description Chris Recoskie CLA 2007-05-14 12:28:30 EDT
Create a simple hello world project under CygWin.  Do a search for declarations of structs with name pattern "*" in the project or in a working set.  Matches from indexed system headers show up (and there are a lot of them).

This is not necessarily bad... the user may often want this, or may specifically want to search for something they know is in the system headers.  Typically though I suspect the user, when they select a search scope, does not expect system headers to be followed.

We should provide a way to easily filter out matches from system includes.
