Hi everyone,

I'd like to ask what you guys think of the following feature
request:
http://andreas.haufler.info/2012/02/better-syntax-coloring-for-ides.html

Summary: It's about coloring round braces in different
colors, to easily select inner sub expressions in statements like: test(bar(foo(3+4))).
Based on a colorwheel, each pair of braces would be colored differently,
so that one easily sees, what belongs together:

test(bar(foo(3+4))) -
The number of colors, along with their hue is just an example, it shouldn't
probably that colorful...

I wonder if this could be built into JDT. I tried to make
my way through the code, but ran out of time when searching for the right
spot...

Would I just open a bug in the bugtracker, or should feature
requests be discussed here?

best regards
Andy_______________________________________________
