Description Noel Grandin CLA 2008-05-09 07:21:06 EDT 
Context: I'm in the Java perspective, using the Package Explorer, and I right-click and select "Open Project"

Problem: I have tons of projects. It would wonderful if the Open Project dialog had a filter field that did a match on project names to reduce the list, the same way the Open Type dialog works.

Thanks.

There is another way, see http://blog.eclipse-tips.com/2009/06/keyboard-accessibility-thru-command.html for details.
