Thanks for the reply & taking on board the ideas Thomas.  See my notes below...

You already can do that in the normal project window, not in the Commit
wizard.
Yep I noticed it was part of the project window and  I understand if you don't necessarily agree with this one.  I'm not sure how other people work however I tend to use the commit window as a review for what I've changed.  I find it's at this point I notice files that really don't need to be part of the project (e.g. new log files etc).  Currently I have to uncheck those files from the commit, remember them, commit, then find them in the project and ignore them which adds to the workflow.

We are aware of this issue, but have no good ideas what menus to remove. We
will appreciate your (and other users) suggestions.
Yeah its a tricky one, a few the of ideas I had were:

1) Have a "More..." menu item after the Query menu, which then displays all the menu items and a new "Less..." menu item after the Help to hide them again.
2) Have a "More..." menu item after the Query menu, and then have all the other menus as sub-menus.
3) Have some intelligence built-in to the menus so that only the current users commonly used menus are shown by default, and a "More..." menu is needed to show all (would probably need an option to turn this off or you might drive some users nuts though haha)

Obviously neither of these are optimal solutions from a UI point of view though.

Kind Regards
Luke
