Description Mik Kersten CLA 2004-03-09 23:45:32 EST
There are two ways in which crosscutting structure appears across the views 
that augment the structure navigable from the AspectJ editor:
* links in the document outline
* markers in the left editor gutter

There are also additional ways in which the crosscutting could surface:
* editor annotations 
* right editor gutter annotations
* crosscutting-centric navigator
* new view dedicated to showing crosscutting at current join point shadow
* inline views

For these views we need to consider text labels, icons, annotation styles, 
filters, and actions.  

The goal should be to surface crosscutting in all of the places where it 
applies, ensuring when possible to be consistent with JDT UI mechansims and 
conventions.

I think this is pretty much done, except for limitations covered by other bugs.
We have gutter annotations, the xref view, the inplace xref view, the
crosscutting comparison view, and the orange image decorators.
Mik - please reopen if you think something is missing.
