Description zolta 2010-02-01 05:06:09 UTC

My use case is the following:

I'm editing A.java and B.java both are docked editor windows
Class A imports class B 
I'm undocking A.java
I'm navigating ( go to source ) to B.java

result: B.java is Activated in the main platform  window, but the  main platform window itself remains behind the undocked A.java window

expected result:
B.java is activated as well as it's parent window (mode)

Navigating should touch Operating System's window manager if necessary

may be similar but I'm not sure of the relation of the two
