Alexey Kazakov commented on JBIDE-5835:
---------------------------------------

I vote for Slava's solution to let user have such properties in soure folder but modify them if user has edited them in Edit dialog. This dialog is quite useful when it converts a user's input to correct form for runtime. For example it converts not latin characters to \uXXXX. But if user has some unusal value then he can use source tab (now it's impossible because Properties editor will modify it anyway). Max, what do you think?
Slava, is it possible to modify only changed property? Or it's a limitation of Properties editor implementation and we have to convert the whole file even if the only property was changed via Edit dialog?

> Using the JBoss Tools Properties Editor for entries which have a leading backslash this backslash gets removed by JTP. The editor should not remove these leading backslashes.
