Greg,

Yes, I think you're right.

Did the clear button restore the view bar for the perspective in 1.7? I thought that changing the view bar in 1.7 caused the perspective to be forgotten. It disappears from the title bar anyway.

It sounds like you have a clear use case that isn't satisfied with the new combination of features--definitely a candidate for Help → Send Feedback.

Cheers,

Curt
