when i start an import from the filesystem of many files the ui blocks for the time eclipse is counting the files, this is done before the real import is starting. not until all files are counted the import starts and shows the progress on the progress bar. during counting there is no way to cancel the operation and the ui is blocked, there should be the reason to do so! the problem is very critical when importing lot of files from a network drives or filesystems with symbolic links. the only way to cancel such an operation is to kill the eclipse process.
