Description Andrew Eisenberg CLA 2009-02-19 22:40:40 EST 
When viewing the source code on a binary aspect, the source code seen has been sent through the AspectsConvertingParser and so it looks very strange with class swapped out for aspect, etc.

It is possible to not perform the transformation and have the source code look normal, but that breaks the outline view and also prevents the binary code from being indexed.

What to do????  Both ways are broken.

I am leaning towards performing the transformation so the code looks funny, but the outline view is appropriate.  The reason is that the code is still readable (even if funny looking), and it is also navigable (ie- outline view, search, call hierarchy, etc).
