Hi

IMHO, the 20% who explicitly enabled message anonymization will also enable method anonymization because they are avoiding the problem of needing corporate approval of any release of data. A method name such as SHA4096 may reveal what algorithm is being exploited/developed. Too risky if you are not sure.

'instance of Eclipse' is ambiguous.

If the choice is persisted in the workspace that seems too dangerous, one accidental answer and Eclipse becomes leaky.

Persisting only until the next Eclipse restart seems like a good idea.

Sounds okay to me. I wonder if the short cut „not to enable 3rd party class 
names in stack traces by default“ would be acceptable as well since it’s right 
on the configure dialog and easy to grasp (IMHO).

Wayne,
any thoughts on this? I can change the defaults (for SR1) if the EF would agree.

FWIW, during the milestone build (until June 20th) 20% of the users explicitly 
enabled „message anonymization“ because they feared that the message may 
contains sensitive data. I’d expect that users are less concerned about method 
names. I’d need to validate this number with the current reporter base to give 
a more reliable statement, though.

I strongly conclude that if someone would have cared at that time, they would 
have had the chance to participate from the very first moment.
I brought up the issue of better handling third-party plugins several times from the very beginning and was brushed off.

I did a quick search for earlier discussions on this topic and found [1] from 
August 2014. I don’t have the impression you were brushed off in that 
discussion - but nevertheless: If I did (there or somewhere else) I apologize 
for that.

Best,
Marcel
