R3.4. The Navigator and Project Explorer tell the user that a file or folder is removed from the file system while the Package Explorer doesn't. This can result in unexpected deletion from disk.

We should fix this in two steps: 1. make sure we show the 'from file system' (3.4.1, this bug) 2. show the type of deleted resource. The Package Explorer almost does this, only the project deletion (which comes from the LTK) doesn't do this. ==> will not be fixed for 3.4.x. Tracked by bug 240342.

First 2 changes look good, but 3rd is problematic: DeleteWizard_9=Are you sure you want to delete these {0} elements from the file system? This message is used for all kinds of multselection, also e.g. for two Java methods, where "from the file system" is wrong. Can only be fixed well with an additional message (like bug 239425).
>This message is used for all kinds of multselection, also e.g. for two Java >methods, The patch is already wrong if only one method is selected. Especially if this method isn't yet saved. Suggest to live with the current implementation for now. Otherwise we'd need a complete rework of this. Markus?

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. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
