Hey Guys,

While I haven't programmed java in years, nor have I ever done an eclipse plugin.....I was looking at the mercurialeclipse plugin for some inspiration, they do have a recently used drop down on their push/pull wizards. I'm going to see if I can get up to speed on how they do this and possibly implement something similar.

However, I do think that a remotes dialog would be very nice, something that you can just choose from whenever you wanted to do a push/pull operation.

Thanks for entertaining the idea =D
