Because all files with the . (dot) prefix are hidden by the PHP explorer, it hides the .htaccess and .htpasswd files. These files should have an option to show them while not having to show the eclipse project files.

This is not a big bug, but it would save having to work around it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have an .htaccess or .htpasswd file - (It won't show the file in the PHP explorer)
2. Go to the PHP Explorer drop down menu and find "Filters.." - Uncheck "Resources", click ok.
3. You can see the .htaccess or .htpasswd files, but now it shows the project files.

a workaround is :
 Go to the PHP Explorer drop down menu and find "Filters..", check "Name filter patterns"
then type something like:".project, .settings"
but it is really not a good method.
