When you move your cursor over an Editor Tab, and right-click on it, it would be great if you could copy the full path of the file into the clip board. The Context Menu for the Editor Page itself should have this, too. And perhaps even the Edit Menu.
I think Path Tools plugin does that. See http://plugins.netbeans.org/PluginPortal/faces/PluginDetailPage.jsp?pluginid=676.
Thanks for the pointer. It doesn't do exactly what I was hoping for, but it is indeed useful. I was hoping to the a copy path option on the Editor Tabs themselves. They already display the full path on hover, but there no choice ion the Context menu to copy that path.
