Change Installed Drools Runtimes Preferences Page
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBIDE-6159
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-6159
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: drools
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0.GA
            Reporter: Vlado Pakan
            Assignee: Kris Verlaenen


Current Installed Drools Runtime Preferences page is little bit confusing (Menu > Window > Preferences > Drools > Installed Drools Runtimes). When user choose button Add... it opens dialog where user can specify Name and Location of existing Drools Runtime or choose button "Create New Drools 5 Runtime" which will open native dialog for selecting directory where to create new  Drools Runtime and populate correctly Name and Location text field. This is little bit non standard behavior and user doesn't know what exactly happened.

Better will be to add button "Create..." bellow button "Add..." on the Drools Preferences page with the same functionality as button "Create New Drools 5 Runtime" and remove this button from Drools Runtime dialog. Both actions Create and Add actions will call the same Drools Runtime dialog just with different Title. It would be realy nice to have there some description what is going to happen actually what means Create and what means Add action within Drools Runtime dialog. It also would be nice to have self describing tooltips for buttons "Create..." and "Add..." on  Drools Runtime Preferences page.

See attached screenshots.
