I think the hard part is deciding from a UI point of view where to
integrate something like this. You say you would like it in the
decorators but if that made the UI non-responsive you would probably
change your tune. A specific option is possible, but I am not sure how it
would be presented to the user and I am a bit reluctant to add new options
and complicate the UI in the process.

The combo box is loaded via an Extension point. So you can make a plugin
where you contribute more items to the combo. You do not even need any
code, it is all just done via the plugin.xml.

I'd like to see someone get rid of our view entirely and figure out a good
way to contribute the same information to the Eclipse properties view.
