Nothing is wrong with it. Since I have never used the feature I just did
not know if that was the expected behavior. If it is, and we implement
it, we should just be sure to document it.
Would you mind to continue testing with your patched version, taking into
account some of the stuff in that Eclipse documentation? Then maybe you
can compile a list of what needs to be done to make it behave correctly
and submit is as an issue. Obviously the main thing is to tell Eclipse we
support them, as you have done. Personally, I would just rather not turn
the feature on until we know it works, as I wish we had done for
Synchronize.
Thanks
