-------------------------------------

[~dgolovin], [~jpeterka] well it's pretty easy to add BrowserSim to every single perspective by default. We just need to set the *visible* property to *true* - https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-browsersim/blob/master/plugins/org.jboss.tools.vpe.browsersim.eclipse/plugin.xml#L30. AFAIK we want to add it to the "Quick Access" regardless of the "Command Group Availability" (Even if the command is not available for the perspective it should be available in the Quick Access). However I'm not sure it's doable. I was surfing on the Internet and asked a question on [StackOverlow|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25727664/plugin-development-how-to-add-plugin-to-the-eclipse-quick-access-for-all-pers] but wasn't able to find the answer. I have noticed that if the BrowserSim is available for the perspective, *Run BrowserSim* command is also available in the Quick Access and vise versa.

For now I see only two possible solutions:
1. Leave everything the way it is
2. Add BrowserSim to every perspective. If user fed up with BrowserSim icon, he will have to go to the "Customize perspective" and disable it. 

NOTE: 2 approach [is not recommended|http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_make_my_action_set_visible%3F]

> Unable to access BrowserSIM when installed as single feature from JBT CR1. Additional steps are required. This is confusing for a users. BrowserSIM should be accessible and visible after installation if possible.
> *These additional steps are:*
> # Right click on the Eclipse toolbar→Customize Perspective...:
> !customize-perspective.png!
> # Go to the Command Group Availability tab and select BrowserSim command group:
> !enable-browsersim.png!
> # BrowserSim icon will appear on the toolbar:
> !browsersim-enabled.png!
