[Subclipse-users] Convenience during the first checkout

Hello all!

In the ArgoUML project, we currently have a fairly complicated set of
eclipse projects as our recommended eclipse setup. It looks like we will
keep that for some time. For the existing developers, this doesn't matter.
For our new developers, we have provided the Team Project Set files to
simplify the first checkout.

Our Eclipse download instructions are currently more or less like this:
1. Make sure you have subclipse installed in your Eclipse.
2. Download the appropriate *.psf file (we have several) to somewhere in the
file system (this is probably done outside Eclipse).
3. Import the psf file by browsing to it in your filesystem.

I would prefer if the step 2 could be omitted. This would require Subclipse
to provide an option in Eclipse so that I can do the following:
1. File => Import
2. Team => Team Project Set and Next
3. NEW:Browse to the file in the not yet downloaded remote repository and
Finish.

Another entry point to the same function would be from the SVN Repository.
When I browse there I can select the *.psf file (remotely). Being able to
apply an "Import this Team Project Set"-file function on this file would be
convenient.
