Feature Request.

That's great news on the client fixes/changes!

By "previous," I simply mean the revision of the affected path/file before
this change was committed.

For example,

Lets say I have FileA.cpp, which has revisions 250, 750, and 1000. (it's
been touched 3 times).

If I view the resource history of the trunk, I'll get to see all the
revisions ever committed. If I choose revision 1000, perhaps 2 files were
touched in that change: FileA.cpp(1000), and FileA.h(1000).

I would see these two files in the 'affected paths'. It would be nice if I
could right-click on FileA.cpp in the affected paths table, and have an
option to compare between the FileA.cpp committed at that revision (1000),
and FileA.cpp that existed prior to it (750)

Simply put, it would be a short cut to finding FileA.cpp in the tree-view,
viewing it's resource history, and comparing the FileA.cpp revision at 1000,
and the one before it (750).

Hope that's clearer :-\

   This will be fixed in next Subclipse release and will work even if
default root path is not set.

   Right. Currently there is no menu. I'll check if I can add something
in there.

   Can you please clarify what is "previous"?
   It is a good idea to have "Show in resource history" from there. I
wonder how difficult would be to implement back/forward actions for such
drilling down. Or maybe we can have some kind of history similar to
search history drop-down.
   Another interesting feature would be to link editors with currently
selected affected path... Maybe it is already there.
