Description Jared Burns

Build 20020502
Linux-Motif

1. Go to "File->Import->File System," navigate to a directory, and import some 
files.
2. Close Eclipse, then relaunch.
3. Go to "File->Import->File System" and pull down the "Directory" menu. Note 
that it is empty.

Directories that are chosen for importing files should be persisted in the 
workspace across invocations of the workbench.

This would be a useful enhancement.

This works in build 20020508. Be sure that you hit finish and imprt the
directories - we only cache directories that were actually used for import.
