Description Milos Kleint 2013-04-11 13:23:28 UTC
when using the IO selection api's Position class I typically in maven build  remember start or end of a given section. meaning the text that is interesting is typically a few lines after or before the Position's value. When calling switchTo() method (or similar name, cannot recall now) the output implementation typically satisfies itself with showing just the line of the position which effectively ends up being either the first or the last line of the output.

Ideally this would position the line someplace in the middle of the view (or at least allow a buffer of 5-10 lines above and below to be shown as well) and place the cursor at the right position.
