Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2007-06-24 15:25:14 EDT 
When new typing in or copying class names in any plugin code it would be really handy to have a quickfix that would search missing dependencies within target platform, suggest to add required dependencies into the current plugin manifest, and automatically optimize imports.

I have implemented similar search facility on top of Maven metadata. See [1] and [2]
