> * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=421834
> More submitted:
> * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=431421 - text overspills area and is left as residual (JBIDE-16862)
> * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=431423 - context menu opens away from mouse pointer (JBIDE-16879)
> * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=431425 - too short combo box (JBIDE-16877)
> * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=431426 - shade of blue link text (JBIDE-16861)
> We should make sure all SWT issues we met are reported upstream and that we provide the necessary assistance to SWT developers to make sure everything will be stable for Luna/GA.
> On Linux, most issues can be "hidden" by setting SWT_GTK3=0, but that's definitely not something we want to rely on for JBDS, as SWT over GTK2 will not be maintained in future.
