Re: [tycho-user] p2 browser updated 
This is a very useful enhancement. Great!
I just want to make sure what "Including Features" really means in relation to a feature.xml. Let's take a bundle as IU. Does "include a selected IU" only refers to the property of a bundle to be declared as a <plugin in feature.xml or would it also count as "included" if referenced by <import plugin=../>. I actually don't know how to tell the difference when just looking at p2 metadata. Below is a sample feature.xml. Would both com.acme.basic and org.eclipse.ui count as being "included"?

<feature
      id="com.acme.feature2"
      label="ACME feature 2"
      version="1.0.0.201202161430"">
   <requires>
      <import plugin="org.eclipse.ui"/>
   </requires>
   <plugin
         id="com.acme.basic"
         version="1.0.2.201202161430"
         unpack="false"/>
</feature>

I added couple of new views to p2 browser [1], both accessible through
right-click menu on IUs in Repositories view

"References" view shows all IUs that directly and indirectly require
select IU. This view is useful when you want to know why selected IU is
present in the repository.

"Including Features" shows all features that directly or indirectly
include selected IU. This view is useful when you want to know what
feature you need to add to target platform (or install) to get selected IU.
