Description Jared Burns CLA 2004-10-04 15:32:37 EDT 
Parent nodes in the Search tree should show the same "potential match" emphasis as their children 
if all children are potential matches.

For example, if I do a Java search and all the results in a particular Type are "potential matches", 
then the tree node for the Type should be grayed out and should say "potential matches" just like its 
leaf nodes.

"Potential Matches" seems to be the most useless feature in eclipse. It always seems to just get in the way. 
Is there any chance we can get rid of it? 
Alternatively allow a setting to disable this feature.

This can be done via General > Search preference page.
