Commit... -> Staging View.

That would be fine by me.... if the staging view became it's own
dialog/window.

All the incidental views that wrap around the Eclipse editors are
annoying to work with unless they are a table or a text area.  For me
this means I don't use EGit staging because I hate playing games with
maximizing, minimizing, and resizing panels.  Instead I stage with
SmartGit which gives me *brilliant*, 3-way (HEAD, Index, Working Copy)
line/hunk staging power.  I'm much happier alt-tabbing to stage than
fighting the Eclipse UI.  When I do commit with Eclipse (which is
actually frequently - mostly for the changeid generation and the column
80 boundary line) I use the commit dialog.
