RE: [Subclipse-users] Recursive removal of property

Mark,

        This is a very interesting feature to include... why instead of saying in the menu just "set property", don't you change to: "add/remove property"? and then inside you let the user decide...

Yep, as expected it's just set to empty value. Actually I wanted this
property to be removed totally in all files, since I made an error. A
"Delete property" recursively (equivalent to "Set property") would have
been great, but I will do it manually... plenty of files, ... ommmmh...
this is almost like zen ;-)

Let me know if you do not know if you do not know how to do this with the command line.

I would rather not add a specific Delete property option to the Team menu.  Think of another UI we could use to get this done.  For example, maybe if you use Set property and enter an empty value we could prompt to ask if you wanted to delete.

Enter an enhancement in the issue tracker regardless.
