Description Eden Klein CLA 2008-11-27 10:12:02 EST 
In the current implementation, if a file contains only a class or an interface and if the user right clicks on it in the scriptexplorer view and choose the the delete action, the file is deleted altogether.
This behavior matches the Java notion of a class/interface and a file, which are highly connected.
In dynamic languages this is not the case.
A file can exists by itself without necessarily containing a class or an interface.
the attached patch fixes the problem.
