Although there is a global (default) value for the CVS_SERVER environment variable, it is not possible to define a per-connection CVS_SERVER variable. This causes problems when you are working with two repositories, where one expects 'cvs' and the other expects 'wincvs' (for example). The only way to achieve this in Eclipse ATM is to use two workspaces. Given that the CVS_ROOT, and indeed, CVS_RSH are really things that may vary from CVS connection to CVS connection, can you add the ability to change these on a per-connection basis instead of only a global one? I'll admit that having a global 'default' is helpful, but it is desirable to be able to override and/or change these values for each connection.
