SCNR...

Will the next version have a direct link to the patent office so I can
submit my code for patenting?
Also, how about a module which examines the code of all other users of
eclipse so I can sue them with a click of a button if they violate
my patents?
Or, even better, eclipse should refuse to compile any code which looks
similar to anything I have patented!

On a related thought, does your code save the sources encrypted? What
happens if I loose my key? Am I allowed to break the encryption to get my work
back or would that be a violation of the DMCA? ;-)
