Description Kurt Kellner

A VERY nice feature that is currently available is the ability to locate a java 
class regardless of it's location by typing its name using menu Navigate -> 
Open Type...

When dealing with multiple projects that contain numerous folders, it can be 
cumbersome locating files (e.g., XML, JSP).   A navigate option like "Navigate -
> Open File..." that would allow you to start typing a file name (including 
wildcards) to locate a file.  The operation would work just like the Java Open 
Type...  in that it would display all matching file names.  Since the same file 
could exist in multiple folders/project, it would display the directories the 
matching file exists in at the bottom of the dialog.
