How it should behaves if there is conflict in imports (typicaly class List is in several packages)?
>How it should behaves if there is conflict in imports?
I would say then it should behave the same way it does now. In other words, do
not offer the new "add all imports needed for this line" option *unless* there
is a single unique list of required imports. The down side, obviously, is that
the user interface will behave differently for different situations that might
*appear* to some users to be the same situation. I would say that is a price
worth paying.

I had this: public class ProductionReport { And I changed it to this: public class ProductionReport extends TopComponent implements ActionListener, ChangeListener { The resulting editor hint had three options: Add import for ChangeListener Add import for ActionListener Add import for TopComponent It would be nice if there were a fourth: Add import for all class references on this line My suggested wording could use a bit of work.... :-) As it is now, I have to repeatedly click the light bulb to get each import added. Admittedly, there are simple workarounds (Alt-Shift-F), but it would be nice to have this in the editor hint.
