    I just started using the JavaScript editor so there may be some options that I don’t have enable that will let me do what I want…

    1 – I want // TODO items to show up in my task list. I saw this requested for the XML editor but wasn’t sure that it had been mentioned for JavaScript

    2 – I want to be able to either declare dependencies between JavaScript files or have MyEclipse automatically reference sibling files to help out with code completion. If I declare an object and all of its methods in one .js file I would like to have code completion understand those methods. If the .js files are all in the same directory maybe? If we declare one or more directories to be “src” directories for JavaScript similar to declaring src directories for Java maybe?

    3 – Syntax checking doesn’t seem to be happening. I’ve got some obviously invalid code and it isn’t being highlighted in any way as being invalid.

    4 – Have the .js files expand in the package explorer to show methods and members just like happens in the Outline view. I like screen real-estate and having those in the package view would save space and clicks (yes I know I can get the outline beside the tasks/problems/etc.).

    And another thing…

    When I have variable.field and I double-click on either variable or field that is all that I want selected. MyEclipse instead selects the whole thing. If I copy/paste some code and need to simply change the variable name I want to be able to type out the variable name once, double-click to select it, ctrl-c to copy it, double-click on the next instace to select the variable name on a different line and then ctrl-v to paste the new name in.
