Working Groups
There should be an option allowing to keep open only those projects that are part of the currently selected working set. When selecting a working set to be used - projects included in the working set should be opened - projects not included in the working set should be closed For example, I work on different "project groups" that are completely disjoint. I use a working set for each group. Every time I switch from group A to group B, I need to close all projects of group A manually, then switch to the working set for group B and finally open all projects of group B manually. Eclipse should provide an option doing all that in one step.
Not for 3.0
Reopening now that 3.0 has shipped
Might be a good tweak for the incubator.

(In reply to comment #5) > Sorry, there was no time in 3.4 Sorry, Kim, but I've found time for implementing this ;-)
These patches introduce 'Open Working Set' and 'Close Working Set' commands (available using the Quick Access feature) and will open/close all closed/opened projects in a given working set. This slightly differs from an original request but works quite well for me for the same use case.
