This is funny: other products have it, so we don't do it. Buy them! :) 
So much for open source "competitivity".... :((

I tried it also, but it doesn't work for any of my programs, so I guess 
we'll end up with a commercial solution.

Yeah, probabily... but I regard this is basic functionality. I would be 
willing to invest time in writing customized views for my needs, but 
prefer to start from something... I don't want to sound like I don't 
appreciate the work put into Eclipse, it's one of the best IDE's ever.. 
it's just that users have high expectations set by exactly this quality ;)
