3.5M5 Currently I have a wizard for JSP files simply named "JSP", which is the proper acronym for "JavaServer Page" and how most people refer to them. I can't expand the wizard name, however, to the proper name without losing the ability for users to actually type "jsp" into the search field and find the wizard. The only solutions I can think of either involve supporting the keywords extension point with newWizards or supporting camel case in the search field, which would solve this problem for anyone else dealing with acronyms.
Good idea (see also bug 268310).
I think the right way is to do the same as in the preference page i.e. support to specify keywords. Camel case filtering would probably better implemented in org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.PatternFilter.
Same should be done for Import/Export wizard.
Prakash is now responsible for watching bugs in the [Wizards] component area.
Created attachment 153566 [details] Patch v01 Adding the keyword support to new/import/export wizards. Not sure whether CamelCasing is really useful here. So didn't to that part
Created attachment 153567 [details] Screenshot Sample usage

>Not sure whether CamelCasing is really useful here. So didn't to that part Good. This would be inconsistent as we also don't have this in other wizards and dialogs (except in the 'Open XY' ones).

Patch v01 released to HEAD
Verified in I20091207-1300
>Verified in I20091207-1300 How did you verify it? I could not find a keyword contribution in I20091207-1300.
(In reply to comment #12) > How did you verify it? I could not find a keyword contribution in > I20091207-1300. By writing a sample plugin with keywords for the wizards and running it.
In the screenshot it shows "zip" as a keyword for the archive import wizard. This makes a lot of sense to me - shouldn't we go through our existing wizards and add some reasonable keywords? I just noticed this now, but it would have made a good N&N entry - I'm adding the keyword so that we can consider this for the M5 N&N if we add some new keywords for our existing wizards.

John, You may want to look at Bug #296801, Bug #296802 & Bug #296803. > I just noticed this now, but it would have made a good N&N entry - I'm adding > the keyword so that we can consider this for the M5 N&N if we add some new > keywords for our existing wizards. I thought of making an N&N entry, but then what good is a feature from Platform UI, when Platform UI itself didn't use :-) Once those three bugs are fixed, it would be a good candidate for M5 N&N.
Agree with previous comment.
