Summary: Template names starting with "Java" are confusing

Description _ tboudreau 2003-04-14 16:48:57 UTC 
All of the items in the templates list now begin with
"Java" (Java Class, Java Exception, Java Interface).
Probably this was done to differentiate them from C++ or
whatever for projects.

*However*:  The items are already qualified as Java - the
user must click a folder that says "Java Classes" to get
there at all.

The word Java makes it take much longer to scan the list
and find, say "Interface" - you have to read every item
instead of being able to scan the first few letters.  This
is a usability problem.

OK, we will polish the names for new projects. Chris, please keep this
in mind when polishing the uispec.
