[Github-comments] [geany/geany] [Wishlist] Merge treebrowser plugin and file browser. (#1485)

[elextr]

@sagarchalise yes I believe they have different use-cases, and its my opinion that the file manager part of tree browser is inappropriate for a plugin in an IDE.  If it was part of a refactoring plugin it would make sense, but not simply for file management.

If it was just a browser as its name says, it would still fit the use-case of @vfaronov of having many directories visible at the same time, and in that role could replace file browser so there is not a confusing proliferation of core plugins.  But it should be developed in that role within G-P until shown to be safe and reliable, not moved to core as an unmaintained unknown quantity.

Also if it was moved to core #1414 would need to be updated to include it.
