Description Mik Kersten

Given an element, search all contexts to identify those that refer to the element.

Any plans to work on this one?

Yes, this needs to be part of the next rev of the context model, which will provide both this search UI, and the ability to maintain handles in inactive contexts.  But it is a big task, so not sure yet if it will make 0.7.

This feature would be very useful for determing all the bugs that are associated with an element.  For example, you can determine which classes have the most bugs.  With a little more work you can determine which "features" or "requirements" have the most bugs (this is what I'm doing).

Need to postpone due to 2.0 focus on APIs and rename overhead.

Comment 5 Mik Kersten

Please vote if interested in this feature.
