Attachments: the list of actions for a Java Project

the list of actions for a Java Project

There are so many commands that do not have an Icon associated.

This makes hard to find a command in a list of commands.

For example on a Java Project [see attachment] when you do a right click on project you are presented with a list of actions and none of them has an icon.

Icons makes you pick a command faster. 

Also, sometimes the order of commands can change making hard to re adapt. 

As this might not seem to be vital but is VERY annoying for me and probably for other "visual" people.

As the first step at least add the icons you already have (ex: Run, Compile, Debug, Open, etc)) to those menus and in the second step add new icons for actions without any icon.
