Fine tuning the plug-ins in a product is one way to significantly reduce
the "noise" in the menus and popups and is a good start. But... What do
you do when all you want to do is redcuce the contents of a required
plugin. For example I'm busy researching what is involved in removing the
"Bulid" choices from the workbench menu in the org.eclipse.ui.ide plug-in.
The result will be posted to this newsgroup.
