The context menu is cluttered with items I will never use when working on a particular group of projects.
For example, I have aspectj installed. But most of my projects do not deal with aspectj. So I wish to create a perspective where aspectj items are not displayed.
I should not have to hack into each respective plug-in to do that.
I could configure the perspective to restrict the menu and toolbar items being displayed.
Therefore, common sense leads me to believe that I should be able to configure my perspective to reduce the number of items on the editor context popup menu. If there is a way, could you please let me know how?
There are two options you can do. First, you can select the Customize Perspective… option from the Window menu, and disable Menu/Toolbar contributions.
And to disable some views in a permanently saveable way (e.g. it survives the closing of the perspective) you can save your current state into a new perspective using the Save Perspective… option from the Window menu.
