Hi.. prior to NB 3.6, I was pleased with the automatic focus of the Tomcat output tabs when more text was appended to the buffer. In 3.6, this seems to have been lost with the new UI rewrite. I find it very beneficial to have my Tomcat output tab gain focus if exceptions or Tomcat output is produced. Specifically, recompiling a class (assuming Tomcat has been reconfigured to allow class reloading -- should be on by default in NB IMHO) it is useful to see when Tomcat has detected the change and reloaded the class. Without this feature, there is an extra click and scroll associatesd with seeing the results. Also, it may be useful to add another tab option to "[x] Follow updates" to prevent the tedious task of click-scrolling to the end of the output.
