Description Matthew Conway CLA 2003-10-14 14:53:51 EDT 
If i have a view which has been docked as a fast view, there is no way to drag
something into that view.

For example, in eclipse 3.0M4, show the ant view, make it a fast view, then try
and drag and drop a build file into it from an explorer view - as soon as you
click anywhere else, the fast view disappears (as expected).

If the fast view were able to show itself when something was dragged over its
icon, I think this problem would be solved.

The alternative is to temporarily unfast view it for the duration of the drag
op, but this is pretty cumbersome from a users perspective.

Reassigning bugs in component areas that are changing ownership.

Might be worth considering for the new min/max support.
