   > What is the use case for this feature?
   
   Everytime I want to share the exact location of a class I'll need a fully 
qualified class name. Like Spring xml configuration, referencing classes exact 
location for Jira Tickets, ...
   
   > It might be better to make this work with the regular Copy action--i.e. if 
you copy a node that happens to be a class, and try to paste it into a text 
editor, it will paste the fully qualified class name.
   
   That might be an alternative. Tbh I oriented the implementation to the 
plugin @matthiasblaesing and eclipse. Only downside I'd see it would a little 
bit slower to access with a mouse than with a context menu in navigator and 
code editor.
   
   > Adding new actions for very workflow-specific features makes menus very 
long...
   
   I wonder if it really a workflow specific feature. I agree that before 
adding items to these kind of menus that should be part of a discussion.

   Yeah you might be right. Acutally I wanted to get some handy on the platform 
in preparation of trying to implement `mvnd`.

   You're right. It's a reimplementation since the plugin does not work with 
recent NetBeans version and with quite none dependencies.
