Description Pavel Buzek 2003-06-11 16:24:09 UTC 
When the user creates a project from template the
set of capabilities of the project (implemented by
a list of project natures that are added to the
project) is given and cannot be extended later.
This is pretty limiting. It means that we would
need project templates with all possible
combinations of project natures that the user may
ever need.

There are number of ideas how to solve this: allow
the user to add natures to an existing project,
add natures automatically when they are needed
(e.g. when the users adds/creates a file that is
not supported by the current natures, etc).
