Screen shot of popup menu in question

Right clicking on a node on the Project tab returns an odd popup menu when the project is using the 'Default Config'.  When using a custom run configuration, no information about the configuration is displayed.  Possibly, this new rendering of the run configuration is a new feature, but then it should be visible for other configurations beside just the default.

Showing no information about the config is consistent with older versions on NB.

I like the idea of showing the run configuration here, however.  I use custom configurations most of the time, and I like being able to see which one is being used (for non-main projects) easier.

Don't know if this has changed or not since beta (now using 201205300001), but I can see that these hints are on all non-main projects.  Not sure I like the rendering of the information, but I have nothing better to suggest.  I do like that the information is there.

This bug can be closed.

The name of the current config of the selected project is displayed if it is not main and there is a main project set which has a _different_ config set, to emphasize that the config shown in the global combo box is not what you are about to use.
