ViewObject instance name issue

Question

Hi,
suppose you have a viewobject named ProductView.
If you add it to an application module, and give it the instance name 'SomeView', and save that, there's no way to recall that it was based on ProductView.
What I mean is this: If I forget that SomeView is actually ProductView, there's no way to recall that, but to read the xml file, or find out with some java code. I think the wizard should display the original name somewhere.
For small application modules this is usually not that big an issue, since giving proper names usually helps with this sort of stuff. But for large application modules with over 30 viewobjects, this can be a real annoyance.
Greetings,

Answer 1

Yes, would be really great if the JDev team could
in the AM dialog
- display the original full qualified named in a tooltip
- add a "sync" context menu to a node in the "data model " tree that selects the VO in the "availabe view objects" tree.
in the VO dialog
- same as above only for EO
- display the FQN to the accessor in the "association end" drop down or perhaps display a multi column drop down displaying the FQN association name. It is really difficult to see if the correct association is used.
- Perhaps also display the subtypes for inherited EOs as tooltip
