Build 3.1M2 There are several 'close' action variations available by right click in '>>' editor tab area. One of the missing one would be to close all but the most recently used ones (number depending on preference: 'number of opened editors before closing'). This way, when not using the 'close editors automatically' mode, I would still be able to flush obsolete ones at some checkpoint in a quick fashion.
I'd also agree this functionality. A simple solution would be an option to close all *invisible* editors, which are hidden in the ">>"-dropdown-menu. The hidden items are most likely the ones I am not working at the moment and want to get rid of (for freeing up some resources - Eclipse is still a resource-intensive app).

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
