I thought about that too. Our problem is that unlike Eclipse we don't have a nice component for organizing the docked views, that users can shift around to their liking, so overcomplicating the view will make it unpleasant for many people.

Also the idea of links between Obj and Db layers does not contradict your suggestion (or the current layout), as it is about quickly jumping to a related object, no matter which view it is in.

Another idea is to allow quick movement between DbEntities and
ObjEntities. This can be achieved by providing extra links (maybe via
right click? or an extra icon next to the main tree icon). This is
applicable to both Default and Inheritance views.

Or perhaps split the left panel into multiple panels, one for ObjEntities and one for DBEntities. Having them in a single tree doesn't make any semantic sense since they aren't related like a tree. That's a more Eclipse approach: everything in a separate dockable window.
