I agree with Steve. With java projects and their deeply nested folder 
structure, I have to make the drawer very wide to see the actual 
filenames.

It wouldn't be as bad as it is if the drawer could merge the names of 
single subfolders in the name of the parent folder (like Eclipse does). 
Instead of displaying

src/
     com/
         mycompany/
             MyApp.java

it would then look like

src/com/mycompany/
     MyApp.java

Cheers,
