Hi

I don't know if it's something very complicated, but it would be interesting if people could have an extra section (similar to "Swing Components" or "Swing Containers", for example) where its own components could be added. At this "Own components" section you could add/remove them (with a pair of buttons or simply by clicking over the background of this section with the secondary mouse button, showing a menu with those options).

Of course you should be able to set the "icon" for every new component (the one used at the palette), and even a custom name, different than the class name if you want to (then you should need 2 buttons: add entry, remove entry, edit entry).

All this extra stuff should be stored in the project itselft, so you could use it again, even if you close and reopen eclipse.

What do you think?

Regards
