Profiler 070226 Currently if user right-clicks somewhere in editor's window and select Profiling > Add As Profiling Root Method he/she will not see what method is added until Select Task dialog is opened to start new profiling (and previously started profiling session has to be terminated). Since there are different UI approaches about what method is in context (see issue 92980, compare to Enterprise Pack functions) it seems to be a usability issue.
Profiler 070405 The second problem is that there is not always possible to know what project will be affected by Add As Profiling Root Method action. One of the scenarios is filed as issue 92963 and there is another scenario: user opens snapshot from disk and then adds some method as profiling root. In this case <External Application> project will be affected. This is not the expected behavior. Consider providing an ability to select a project each time a method is going to be added as profiling root.
