The problem here is that the Project Explorer was
never adopted fully, and remains rough in the edges. Why isn't
JDT using Project Explorer as the default navigation view,
instead of Package Explorer? I suspect I know the answer: the
Project Explorer has several limitations and/or bugs, compared
to Package Explorer, and the JDT ream doesn't care about it
enough to fully move to it. They've had more than enough time...
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=427897 . There are
indeed some remaining missing feature before JDT is ready to drop
the Package Explorer. Your help with that would be welcome.
The issue is not about love, but about time, resources, and
priority. Those bugs are high priority for you because of your usage
of the IDE, but not the same one for other contributors. Now, there
is Gerrit and an efficient review process, many patches from
non-committers have been merged in last release, you should consider
providing patches as well, I'm ready to bet a drink that if they're
simple good changes, they'll be in Mars SR1.
