Description Mark Addleman CLA 2009-02-03 16:36:44 EST 
Partially in an effort to keep the UI clean and partially to fit better into the Eclipse model, I think it would be nicer if the Buckminster menu on a project's popup were replaced with launcher configurations.

This was considered some time ago but rejected. The problem with launcher configurations is that they cannot be used without a UI since all the launcher logic is tightly intertwined with UI components.

That said, if someone would submit a patch that replaced the current dialog, that would of course be very interesting even if it would be difficult to use the configuration in headless mode.

If the dependent bugs get fixed, then we can proceed with this one.
