Max Andersen commented on JBIDE-727:
------------------------------------

*much* slower - its noticable slower than e.g. the normal type dialog. As soon as i start typing it just waits; been typing this since ..took about 40 seconds for it to come back

>the first tab does not allow me just to write "company"
Why is the first tab not designed to be a pattern ? typing in the full name is not friendly; especially not in hbm.xml files where you don't have to put the full classname. This is a broken design in the UI in my opinion. The tree doesn't have to scanned for all matches; one should just look them up like the second tab does and create a tree based on that result.

>third tab:
I do the following:
Use search tab to type in "Authenticator" (this goes fast), select the default Authenticator generated in Seam apps and click ok.
The full class name is inserted i click browse again and there is nothing in the Recent tab (note: I get an hour glass for about 10-15 seconds when I click browse, about the same time as the wait I have for everytime i type in the Browse tab).

So in short:
Browse tab is still extremely slow + it is waaay harder to use than the Search tab
Recent still doesn't work
Search tab works great, so why not have that as the default one ? 
Browse is

> Click browse clas for a Class attribute.
> First thing I notice is that ".settings" and "META-INF" is there as a package; why ?
> Expand it so it gets some children and grows bigger than the list.
> layout works fine.
> Close it.
> Click browse again:
> Now the dialog fills up the whole screen (height wise)
> Select a class.
> Close it.
> Open it again:
> Recent tab is empty ?
> Search tab's "arrow down"  is bigger and has pixel artifacts. Not the same as with Eclipse's Open Type  dialog.
