[Subclipse-users] Merge dialog and console view

Hi all,

I have a suggestion regarding the Merge dialog usability improvement.
Currently the dialog is modal that makes the Console view inaccessible
when the Merge dialog is open. My typical merge session looks like:

1. Open the merge dialog, fill in all the fields, click checkboxes etc.
2. Hit the "Dry run" button
3. Now I would like to see the dry run output in the Console view, but
it is obviously inaccessible, so I close the merge dialog, go to the
Console view, scroll/maximize/whatever.
4. Open merge dialog again, reenter all the data again, then do the
actual merge.

Is it possible to make this dialog non-modal, or at least make the
Console view accessible somehow?

Best regards,
Philip

P.S.
