Please look at this menu and tell me how useful it is. Since the change that the menu contains definition AND location in two lines this menu is practically useless for me. The default source browser is much quicker to use.
In this menu I actually have to READ every line and figure out which one is the one I'm looking for. When you have shared files this menu gets messy.

And why does it show duplicate redundant entries?

What I would like to see:
* an indication which of the files is in the active project (bold?)
* no redundant entries
* maybe replace the menu with a list window and put the location in tooltips. This would have the advantage of syntax coloring which makes it easier to read too.

Sorry, but I really dislike the current goto menu.

We are not fond of the Goto menu either. We will eliminate duplicate entries in the next build or two.

We use a 3rd party control for the Goto menu. Once the redundancy problem is eliminated, we intend to change the UI with one of our own controls. We are likely to use a listbox with hovering tooltips.

Thank you for your patience.
