If it matters, I have also noticed that it feels like it should be easier to navigate directly to “project-global” files (files that affect the entire project) from the source view of a file in that project. Opening the POM is a common one I have to get to. However, I would say the same thing about the “Project Properties” dialog. Anything that forces me to mouse over to the Project view and select my current project gets in my way. I would do everything from the keyboard if it was convenient.
